nspired by the Nanaimo Trail, a successful tourism initiative in that B.C. community, Love Local, Tourism Camrose and owneroperator small businesses from Camrose have been brainstorming ways to enhance our city as a desirable tourism destination. Creative thinking has led to the suggestion that many local small businesses could try to come up with a signature product that can be marketed as a tourism draw or shopper incentive. One of the first such products to highlight unique Camrose products has been unveiled by The Sweeterie. An appeal was made to the public to submit designs for a donut that depicts Camrose. Olivia Chornohos submitted the winning design concept, The White Chocolate Rose Donut. According to a judging panel member, "Olivia's dreamy creation stood out, in part due to the way it reflects the many layers of our amazing community." As a result of this contest success, other local businesses are now challenged to come up with a signature series contest of their own. Tourism Camrose is hoping that other businesses will take up the challenge and then be featured in next year's Tourism Camrose guide.
