The 2016 fall/winter edition of the Clarendon Welcome Guide is greeting visitors and newcomers to Donley County this week courtesy of The Clarendon Enterprise in cooperation with the Clarendon Chamber of Commerce.
The 48-page, magazine format guide features welcomes from Mayor Larry Hicks, Donley County Judge John Howard, and Clarendon College President Robert Riza as well as Clarendon School Superintendent Mike Norrell and Hedley Superintendent Colby Waldrop. The guide also includes information on local events scheduled through February 2017.
“We’re very proud of this publication, and we appreciate the support of all the local businesses and organizations who purchased advertising space in this endeavor,” said Enterprise publisher Roger Estlack. “This has proven to be a very popular publication, and it continues to grow with each edition. The first guide one year ago was 36 pages, and it has now grown to 48 pages.”
The Welcome Guide has maps for the county and the cities of Clarendon, Hedley, and Howardwick with locations of popular attractions and landmarks marked; lists important information and contact numbers for those cities and the county; and provides contact numbers and information for local schools, and health care providers.
Local churches are listed in Guide as are local real estate agents and rental properties. Greenbelt Lake and the Clarendon Country Club are featured prominently, as is the Saints’ Roost Museum. A directory of Chamber member businesses and organizations is also published in the Guide.
“I think this is one of the greatest things we’ve done,” Chamber Manager Bonnie Campbell said. “It is a great way to get information to people about what we have here and the things there are to do in Clarendon.”
The Welcome Guide is updated and published twice each year. A digital edition of the Welcome Guide will be available this week at ClarendonChamber.com.
