The Town of Sackville is offering two programs to help local businesses provide the best possible service to tourists who visit them during the summer. The first program, the “What Can Sackville Offer Visitors?” tour, is a day long tour of Sackville and area attractions and businesses that will give participants a chance to have a hands on look at some of the interesting things we have to offer visitors. Stops will include Fort Beausejour, local museums, local parks, local restaurants and other points of interest. Participants will receive lunch, and businesses that send participants on the tour will each be given $25 per participant (that’s right, we’ll pay you!) to help offset wage expenses during the day of training. Best practices in costumer service will also be presented over the course of the day, and a lunchtime workshop will also be held.
“We are very excited to be able to offer this tour again”, said Town of Sackville Manager of Tourism and Business Development Ron Kelly Spurles. “We’ll have excellent tour leaders, and we hope that local businesses will take advantage of this great opportunity to increase awareness of the Town and to interact with other front line staff.” The tour will be held on Tuesday, June 27, and advanced registration is required by noon on Monday, June 26.
The second program involves the presentation of the play “Sackville Summer 2017 in Under Four Minutes”. The play can be presented in any location and is intended to give business staff members a quick and entertaining overview of what’s going on in Sackville this summer. It will be available for booking after June 22.
