A nationally-known tourism expert joins us to talk about the economic impact of the industry on New Hampshire, whether it’s money spent at local establishments, job creation or generating tax revenue. Dr. Peter Tarlow will discuss the challenges and opportunities that communities face, in terms of geography, transportation, quality of life, entertainment and culture and how tourism impacts the economy, both directly and indirectly. And we’ll talk about his recommendations for how the Granite State can better position itself for economic success in tourism. We’ll also talk with the Director of Tourism for the state of New Hampshire about local efforts.
