Episode 7: Travel to Wellness in Thompson Okanagan, British Columbia

Cheryl MacKinnon Season 1 Episode 7

A favourite getaway for recharging is to the Thompson Okanagan region of British Columbia.  Lakes for a quiet paddle, ski hills where the fresh mountain air invigorates, a desert with vistas to calm the mind, to wineries where a small indulgence can stimulate your palate, the area is a haven for all things wellness.  Joining me with an update on how tourism stakeholders have been doing through the pandemic is Ellen Walker-Matthews, Vice President.  Ellen and her team have pivoted from being the marketing agency for tge region to being the key resource for industry to engage with for everything from government support to mental health during the pandemic.  Savvy and engaging, Ellen shares what is happening with one of the leading destination marketing organizations in the province.
