Go East of Edmonton Regional Tourism Organization (RTO) is pleased and excited to announce that their Application to the CARES program through Alberta Economic Development and Trade has been approved for a Regional Tourism Development program.
CARES is the Community and Regional Economic Support program to help with long term economic growth in Alberta. In fact, to date, Go East RTO is the first and only Tourism organization to receive this grant in Alberta. This speaks to their creative ability to continue to find funding to increase resources and make tourism in the East region more successful year after year. Did you know that over the past 5 years Go East RTO has received over 12 grants or Co-op funding from various Government departments for a very significant investment in development, marketing and support to our regional tourism industry.
