a position to participate at this time we are operating at less than 50percent capacity with all our nonessential systems shut down mr kemp denied it was his decision to reject the radio request but sent a response regional officials requested york region spokesperson patrick casey said an invitation to boost tourism in ganadav fastest growing region carheat a bad time for staff this guy wants us to do everything including operating a radio station out of our build ing wejust dont have the capac ity to do that mr casey said its not feasible mr rckford said all he need ed was some people to spend an hour between 10 and 11 am saturday to talk about the regions attractions i0i m we needed was a regular phone line he said they didnt have to scwep to anchorage alaska to be on the show s all i needed from them was to have one or two or three peo ple to promote the region the regions rationale for rejecting the opportunity rings hollow with dan girard who as presidentiof the georgina ghamberirpf commerce ihas worked to promote the areas tourism industry thats not acceptable he said here we are busting our keesters trying to get people to come and visit the area mr girard suggested if the regions seven communications department employees plus its tourism bureau couldnt make a commitment the opportunity should have been passed to one of the regions chambers of commerce here we are busting our keesters trying to get people to come and visit the area after all many businesses need the boost having suffered financial hardships due to sars west nile virus and the blackout hesaid there are a lot of dedicated people he said if they needed some volunteers to jump in at least let us know about it he said richmond hill mayor bill bell agreed although mr bell said he did not know all the factors that led to the decision the radio opportunity sounds like one that should have been taken we should be out there pro moting the region he said tourism suffered from sars and it s just starting to recover in fact this spring when the sars crisis was at its peak and the tourism trade had slowed to a- trickle the region gave 250000 for an emergency mar keting and recovery plan brenda mcgowan the regions tourism director was on vacation last week and couldnt be reached for comment but in a report to a regional committee last spring she said research showed three- quarters of tourismrelated visits to the region are day trips a trend she hoped to changa if we can get them to stay longer they obviously spend more thats our goal ms mcgowan said at the time in fact the report said more should be done to promote attractions and events in the region which flies in the face of this weeks decision to deny such promotion mr pickford said thats exact- ly what his program aims to do and couldnt understand why the region would deny a chance to attract millions of tourism dol lars to york he said his audience is largely within two or three hours flight or one days drive of the region thats why he expected york officials to jump at the chance to appear on the show the response i got was the power was out so we cant do it hesaid late thursday after several calls from a reporter to various york officials mr pickford called to say the region had a change of heart we do the show live from regional headquarters in newmarket 10 to 11 am saturday he said j mr- casey
