By submitted, 08/6/19 1:44 PM

HOPE – The Hempstead County Tourism Task Force Committee has an exciting “assignment” for locals and tourists alike. This assignment falls under the heading of Hempstead County Tourist Destinations and Services.

The committee is making a list of tourist destinations in our county. (antique shops, Yerger Museum, Historic Washington, Proving Ground, President Clinton’s Birthplace Home, parks, etc. ) They are also making a list of service-oriented businesses (i.e. churches, libraries, lodging, restaurants, etc.) that would appeal to tourists.

As you are out & about during the Watermelon Festival weekend and the rest of this month, please take pictures of both (tourist destinations & service oriented businesses) & post them on Facebook using the hashtags #hempsteadcountytourism or #hempsteadcountyservices. Thank you for your help.
