Trail Guide Background

In 2007, a group of economic development, arts and tourism professionals dreamed of creating a trail guide to the cultural sites, experiences and businesses of the greater Palouse region - the area between 45 and 47 degrees latitude in north central Idaho and southeastern Washington.  UI Extension, the Palouse Marketing Committee and Two Degrees Northwest are partnering to make that dream a reality.  The guide will lead residents and visitors to the unique assets of our region - the people, places and products that distinguish this region from Anywhere USA.  Listings in this guide will be selected for authenticity and quality, providing eligible local businesses with an exclusive advertising opportunity.

Marketing Plan: The guide will be distributed free of charge and will be available on line, locally in Chamber of Commerce offices, at motels, information kiosks, and locations included in the guide.  The guide will be offered as part of visitor packets at conference centers locally and in cities like Spokane & Coeur d’Alene.  Cost to be included in the guide: $25!
