Cave Area Celebration Event To Promote Area Tourism

Edmonson County will be participating in the Cave Area Celebration to be held on April 13 at the Cave City Convention Center from 10 am to 6 PM. At the event we will be sharing information about things to do in Edmonson County, and others will be sharing information on things to do in Hart Co. and Barren Co.

“Some area stables and hotels will also have booths, and many other attractions will be represented,” said Rhonda Clemmons, Edmonson Tourism Director. The event is a function of the Caveland Marketing Association which is composed of Edmonson, Hart & Barren Chambers of Commerce, Tourism Commissions, and tourism related businesses.

Clemmons said the event is to educate area front line workers on things to do in the tri-county area, “ If a tourist stops at a business and asks for information, we want them to have the answers”, said Clemmons. She also added that front line workers are admitted for free.

Over $200 in cash door prizes will be given away. She said that all you have to do is sign in at front desk and tell them where you work and they will give you the event information.

According to Clemmons, each participant visits each booth to get their entry form signed. At the end, the form is to be turned in for a chance at the prize money. She said that you will also get a free area pass to go to many of the area attractions to experience them free of charge. Coupons will also be distributed. Concessions will be available. "We welcome anyone who works with the public to come join in the Cave Area Celebration," said Clemmons.
