Shall we compare Pulaski County's tourism outlook to a summer day? According to a key area tourism official, it's just as sunny.
Things are "a-rockin' and a-rollin'," as Michelle Allen put it. The Executive Director of the Somerset-Pulaski County Convention and Visitors Bureau monitors factors like hotel rooms filled and visitors to businesses, and while it's still a little early in the summer for concrete numbers, Allen said that Pulaski County and the greater lake region is well on its way toward a banner 2021.
"Things are doing really well," said Allen. "Somernites Cruise (this past weekend) had a really good crowd. The (Lake Cumberland) Thunder Run (a poker run at State Dock in Jamestown) last weekend did really well too. A bunch of folks came out from Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Canada. The parking lots were full. So it was really good to see folks showing up."
