The fabulous summer weather is upon us – so what better time to present the new Discover Salisbury publication. Our Discover Salisbury campaign is showcasing local attractions, upcoming events, recreational opportunities and more while assisting the local tourism sector to unlock its potential. The campaign has already seen a new website and social media channels launched in late 2017, which will be further enhanced by this publication. The benefits of having the breadth of our community’s attractions and sector operators showcased on one website are far-reaching. And with so many hidden gems, amazing natural settings, unique attractions and a growing events calendar – I’m sure even our longest-standing community members will discover something new. Discover Salisbury will be printed three times a year with all future editions distributed inside the popular Salisbury Aware magazine, which hits letterboxes every April, August and at the end of November. You may be wondering… but what about the events that occur between editions? Never fear – the Discover Salisbury Facebook page is providing a constant flow of information, announcements and coverage of exciting local events. Not on Facebook? Visit www.discoversalisbury.com.au
