What an incredible honor to win the CTO Governor’s Award for Exemplary Community Tourism Initiative last night! We are truly shocked and humbled with this recognition and while we didn’t get a speech last night there are so many people to thank!
First and foremost our owner team Jeff, Rachel and Bob for chasing down this dream. The combination of skills, perseverance and vision was truly a team effort! Thank you to our friends and family who have encouraged us, advised us and sweat with us to get this adventure launched. We’re so grateful to our awesome crew and managers that have kept this train moving and created a world-class experience for our guests and helped promote Erie’s story and businesses to thousands.
We wouldn’t have made it here without so many great partners, guidance and support. Special thanks to @ridertd and their property team and board of directors. Your belief in us and bringing this track back to life to add value to our community is the tipping point for this initiative! Our @weldcountyco commissioners and planning staff. The @eriecolorado staff and board and our @erie_chamber and @downtownerie teams.
Thanks to all of our media and social content creators for your efforts to capture and share this experience with your audiences!!!
And to all 6k+ guests who have come out so far, you are the reason we do this! It’s an honor to share stories of our town, offer recommendations to all the great restaurants and shops in Erie and bring a new sense of history and pride to our little town - all while creating lifelong memories!
This is so cool and we’ve had so much fun and we’re just getting started!!! There’s so much more to come! Thanks @visitcolorado!!!
Let us know which pic you like most. The aspen were incredible in Crested Butte and through Cottonwood and Kenosha pass so we had to snap some golden pics!
We’ve learned so much the past few years and exponentially more the past five months of being open as we jumped into the unique blend of tourism, history and outdoor recreation that is Colorado Railbike Adventures.
Much of that learning has come from @visitcolorado and we’re honored to be here in Mt Crested Butte at their GovCon to learn more and connect with the industry. Tourism drives so much value for our state with $28.2B in overall spending, $1.8B in tax revenues and over 187k tourism related jobs.
We’re meeting some awesome new friends and partners, learning about resources and opportunities and gaining some inspiration to keep us moving! Wish us luck tonight as we’re a finalist for the Governor’s Award for Exemplary Community Tourism Initiative! 🤞
