Welcome Aboard, Lisa!

Friends and readers of the blog no doubt know Lisa Day – there’s no doubt in our minds that without her friendship, help and guidance over the past year, Ocean Delight wouldn’t be what it is today. To know Lisa is to love her, and since she’s not just a social butterfly, but a social faerie, too, she has contacts all over the region, and is always the first person to know about local events and activities, often because she has a hand in organizing them. You may remember that she helped Joe with his acceptance speech when we won Accommodator the Year last winter.

So as we’re growing and gearing up for a busy summer, it was a no-brainer to make Lisa’s support official and bring her on board our little team. She is now helping us with Sales and Marketing, and already she is making life much easier and doing a great job. To that end, she just attended a workshop on ‘Theming the Baccalieu Trail as a Romantic Destination’ (couldn’t have been too difficult to come up with information for that one!). The event was led by Eastern Destination Management Organization (EDMO), which was instrumental to our learning the ropes in the hospitality business. Development Coordinator, Kathi Stacey led the event – that’s Kathi and Lisa, above.

Just like we have in the past, Lisa found the workshop illuminating. She said it was very informative and useful for highlighting all the wonderful things here to offer on the Baccalieu Trail, including local businesses and talents. She’s excited that there’s such an abundance in terms of partnering.

I couldn’t agree more, and I couldn’t be happier about this new partnership that we’re creating, too!
