Greetings, As another year winds down and with the holidays coming very soon, I wanted to share some exciting updates and some news on what has been happening along the Gold Rush Trail. 
After a very successful Gold Rush Trail Media and Content trip this past August, I wanted to share that we made the cover of the National Touring Association Courier Magazine! In addition the Gold Rush Trail was featured in an article in the magazine and in an online article titled “ All that Glitters is not Gold, but the Gold Rush Trail is a Gem ”! Thanks Kendall Fletcher for joining us on the trip and writing this wonderful article!
