3 Introduction The Valemount Visitor Centre had a steady year of growth in Visitor numbers and revenues in all categories exceeded 2013 figures. Visitors continued to be impressed by the building, friendly visitor information counsellors, and services available. Many visitors who may not have planned to stop in Valemount decide to spend some time in the area as a result of their stop at the Centre. A summary of TripAdvisor reviews received this year is attached as Appendix A. Visitor Statistics Visitor parties are defined as any group travelling together regardless of the number of people, while visitor numbers are the total number of individuals who came into the Centre. The following chart shows a comparison of statistics between 2014 and 2013: % Statistics Change Total Visitor Parties 8,326 7, % Total Visitor Numbers 21,490 17, % Number of Buses % Travel within BC saw an increase in 2014, which attributes to a portion of the increase in visitation. All visitor centres in the Thompson Okanagan Region saw an increase in visitor parties of 8.3%, an increase in visitor numbers of 6.7% and an increase in buses of 5.4%. Although the entire region saw an increase, the Valemount Visitor Centre performed better comparatively. The following chart shows the changes in visitor parties, visitor numbers and buses for the Valemount Visitor Centre compared to all visitor centres in the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Region and neighboring Northern BC Tourism Region: 80.00% % Change in Visitation Between 2013 and % 40.00% 20.00% 0.00% % Parties Visitors Buses Valemount VC Thompson Okanagan Region Northern BC Region % 3

Robson. As is normal for visitor centres on highway corridors, most visitors were passing through and going to other communities. By providing excellent service and information on the local area in addition to other communities around the Province, visitor information counsellors are able to create a positive first impression of Valemount and encourage longer stays and repeat visits. After stopping at the Centre visitors often decide to head into Valemount to experience local stores and restaurants, and/or a local adventure activity. Many without 4
5 set plans decide to stay for one or more nights in the community after finding out all there is to see and do in the area. The most popular information requested was for maps/directions, followed by site facilities, other, adventure recreation, and parks. Requests falling under the other category may include weather, road reports or wildlife related questions, in addition to any other requests that do not fit into any of the other categories. 0% 1% 0% 2% Information Requested 14% 12% 7% 13% 12% 9% 21% 6% 1% 2% Accommodation Adventure Recreation Attractions / Tours Maps / Directions Events / Conferences Food / Beverage Transportation Shopping Parks First Nations Community Services Investment/Moving Site Facilities (e.g. Washrooms) Other Revenues Total Combined Revenues 2014/ % Change Sales $165,315 $112, % Sales figures for 2014 are from May 10 to October 13, which was the operating season.

Good morning from Barbados, We passed through your visitor center on 16th September, 2014, and I could hardly walk. I came in with a stick and being helped by my husband. I just want to thank the lady at the desk for her kind help. You wheeled me to the washroom in your chair. You contacted the Hospital for us. You wheeled me back to the car. We went to the Hospital where I got excellent attention. The x-ray showed a cracked or fractured pelvis (the pubic bone). They gave me crutches and told me not to put weight on the leg for 6 weeks. We continued our holiday to Jasper and Banff before flying back home from Calgary Airport. Unfortunately I could not go on walks with my husband, but we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The help of everyone was outstanding, and we really appreciate it all. Best wishes, Barbara & Keith Armstrong (Barbados0 17
