Practically unheard of in these times of rising gas prices and decreasing tourism numbers everywhere, our own Upper Clements Park has bucked the trend with a 6% rise in traffic for the 2008 season.  We're looking into exactly how they accomplished this Herculean feat, so we'll let you know what we find out.

Despite increases for the last four years running, Upper Clements Park (which includes a 30 acre wildlife park that opens for the 2009 season this Saturday) remains one of the largely undiscovered gems of Annapolis Digby.  Quietly situated off the main provincial artery (Hwy #101), it's a guaranteed safe, fun and activity-packed place to take the kids.

And now with the multi-talented Simone Wilson installed as the park's new marketing manager, and with the weather warming up more and more every day, we're sure there will be many more great activities happening when the amusement park opens on June 17!
