Tourism outlook bright

Peninsula Clarion
By Brian Smith

Tourism levels on the Kenai Peninsula will continue to climb back toward historically high levels this summer, Kenai Peninsula Tourism Marketing Council Executive Director Shanon Hamrick predicts.

Hamrick said recent numbers released by the state of Alaska indicate a small forecasted bump for the 2012 visitor season across the state -- as high as 6 percent. However, the Kenai Peninsula is poised to perform better than that statistic, Hamrick said, if trends in the number of independent visitors coming to the area continue to rise.
