Welcome, Jill! Weโre honored to have you in the QEC family! ๐ฟ๐
What a great couple of days at the Olympic Peninsula Tourism Summit! It was great to see so many QEC members, meet regional small business owners and stakeholders, and learn more about how we can best meet the travelers who come out of their way to visit, celebrate, and make lifelong memories in our incredible region.
Major kudos to all the event organizers, including our fabulous hosts @7cedarscasino and the ineffable team at @visitolympicpeninsula - thank you for creating a real community within a region and industry. Weโd like to think we know something about that, and itโs real work that you make look easy. We appreciate you!
Cheers to all the sponsors & participants, including our fabulous members @theresortatportludlow, @mistycloverfarm, @castleandcrowncellars, @pugetsoundexpress, @oldalcoholplantinn, @nwmaritime, @finnriver, @olympictourco, and a HUGE shoutout to panelist and QEC board member @keenbeeconsulting - way to go Natalie!
See you NEXT YEAR at @fieldhallevents! Watch to the end to save the date! ๐
Happy St. Patrickโs Day from our very own Pot-of-Gold aka the Quimper Peninsula! Rainbows and water views for days. Today weโre thinking about luck: How lucky we are to live here. How lucky we are to celebrate here. How lucky we are to be in community with one another. ๐
Whether you feel it naturally or work to create your own - may you feel lucky today and every day. ๐Cheers, friends! ๐ป
๐ญ What makes you feel lucky about calling the Quimper Peninsula home?
๐ Cheers to FORTY YEARS of @ptmainstreet! What a sweet celebration of community at @kcptco featuring catering by @admiraltyfinefoods and sweets by @theoldwhiskeymill.
It takes a lot of vision, grit, determination, and foresight to build an organization that has the kind of staying power that Main Street has in Port Townsend. Hereโs to all of those people who go above and beyond their 9-5 in service of a town we love - with a very special shoutout to Mari Mullen for her leadership. Thank you, Mari, for everything.
Congratulations & happy birthday, Main Street!
Letโs keep the party going in the comments! Whatโs your favorite Main Street program or event? ๐ญ
The Hoh Road, the gateway to one of the most sought-after destinations on the Olympic Peninsula, is located here in Jefferson Countyโyet its impact extends across the tourism industries of both Jefferson and Clallam counties. This critical roadway has been washed out since December 2024, and is at risk of not reopening for the 2025 visitor season. The state has stepped up with funding for repairs, but a $20,000 private match is needed to move the project forward.
