FERNDALE, NY (February 14, 2013) – The Sullivan County Visitors Association now has Wi-Fi available at their offices located on Sullivan Avenue in Ferndale. 

Visitors to the area can now stop in and access the Internet as well as browse the Welcome Center for brochures showing all there is to see and do in the county. 

“This access allows visitors and guests to connect to SCVA for tourism information, stay in touch with home or business or surf the web for deals in the area,” stated Roberta Lockwood. “It is our way of showing the visitor we appreciate them by making it easier to access the Internet.”

The SCVA has also recently launched a new events calendar on their website. This new feature is represented by a calendar highlighting event titles which can be clicked on to show each event’s details and descriptions and Google map location. The calendar affords tourism businesses and event organizers throughout Sullivan County the opportunity to directly enter events while providing our businesses, residents and visitors with a single source comprehensive resource tool.

The calendar is constantly being updated for visitors and residents to readily access all upcoming events and will serve as the authority resource for what to do in the Sullivan County Catskills. It will be linked to Facebook, and businesses can also link directly to the calendar rather than trying to maintain their own calendars.

To view the calendar or to enter an event, go to www.catskillsocial.com/events or from the SCVA home page by going to www.scva.net and click on the “events” tab.

For more information or advertising opportunities on these new platforms, please contact the SCVA at 845-747-4449 or 800-882-CATS.
