I want to encourage ALL Ohio maple producers to become a part of this tour. I want to reiterate, this is a statewide tour. Next week, I'm calling it. If you don't have your paperwork in by next week - you won't be a part of it. We've extended the deadline - at some point, I have to call it.
Why do we have the deadline in October? Because planning and advertising for Maple Madness 2013, starts in April of 2012. Tourism is done a year in advance. I'm sure many of you are out putting tubing up getting ready for 2013's maple season. That's great, maple production allows you to cram a couple months before the season and see results. The tourism industry does not.
We have a few slots left in our tourstop map/folder. If you would like to advertise your business, please PM me.
