Bluewater Mayor Excited To Work With Tourism Organization RTO4

The Mayor of Bluewater says he's looking forward to working with the RTO4 tourism organization on a pilot program in Bayfield.

Tyler says he's been working with RTO4 for a few years now and this particular project will bring together the municipality of Bluewater, Huron County's Economic Development Board and RTO4. Hessel adds they've also been working through RTO4 in signage issues with the Ministry of Tourism, as well as looking at future possibilities for gateway signage with the MTO.

Hessel says RTO4 has been very helpful to the municipality in putting them in touch with various ministers and he's looking forward to working with them on other projects in the future.
