TDC sponsoring New Year's Eve vacation contest

The Franklin County Tourist Development Council is sponsoring a New Year’s Eve Vacation contest featuring a two night beachfront stay on St. George Island, meals and tickets to visit the two area lighthouses on St. George Island and Carrabelle Beach.
The getaway promotion is the first in what the TDC hopes will be a continuing series of events designed to highlight the area and attract visitors.
The contest will be marketed mainly through the TDC social media channels but will also get some regional and national coverage in October as a result of a co-op promotion with Gwinnett Daily Post and the Taste of Home magazine that is sponsoring a Georgia cooking event in which the TDC recently traded a separate vacation package in return for promotional consideration.
TDC chairman Pinki Jackel said “The TDC is looking at alternative ways to attract positive area attention and visitors without spending big advertising dollars we don’t have.

She added that “Contests and promotions that we market through our news-letter database, social media channels, website and local media partners are a smart use of limited funds.”
