It’s an annual simple computation each year, but this year’s events listing at www.ruraltexastourism.com exceeds last year’s start up total of 650 by a leap and a bound. With that being said, locals are requested (whether Lavaca, Fayette, Bastrop, Austin, Colorado, Washington, and Lee Counties) to please advise of any new events, additions, or changes that may have taken place with their venue(s).
The current 816 events are loaded annually (and manually) to www.ruraltexastourism.com at no cost to anyone for their listing. “This is our “give back” to the community,” states owner Cathy Chaloupka. There is no cost and we only request that this is “tourism connected” e.g. an event that would interest someone from out of town and needs to include the name, date, website, contact number, and any other information of importance. Usually by year end, we have over 1200 listings and many local entities use this listing for their visitors. The visitors to our website on a monthly basis typically are from 25+ major cities in Texas, 15+ states throughout the US, and 10+ major countries across the world.”
A new category labeled “Regular Events” pose listings that may occur throughout the year on a set or “regular basis”. Chaloupka, who handles marketing and press releases as well, may be contacted at cc@cvctx.com or by calling 979-561-6667 for additional information on events in your area.
