Posted on January 17, 2012



As a new year begins, the Spencer County Visitors Bureau reflects on local tourism growth in 2011. With tourism additions, restorations, and other enhancements, the signs of continuing growth in Spencer County were evident in the past year. "The tourism industry plays an important economic role in Spencer County," says Melissa Wilkinson, executive director of the Spencer County Visitors Bureau. "It's exciting to look back and see how Spencer County tourism continues to grow and to look forward to more development in 2012 and future years." Highlights of the past year include: Spencer County is home to nationally known attractions such as Holiday World & Splashin' Safari, Lake Rudolph Campground & RV Resort, and Lincoln's Indiana Boyhood Home with national and state parks. The Visitors Bureau encourages guests to stay overnight and visit county attractions, shops, and restaurants.
