Another great day of data collection in the Cowichan Region. Today the team was set up at Merridale Cidery & Distillery near Shawnigan Lake. It was a great place to connect and we all enjoyed a great lunch! @merridalecider @cowichantourism @VIUWLCE

We are conducting a study that asks residents of South Wellington, Nanaimo, Cedar, Yellow Point, Gabriola, and southern areas of the RDN what they think about Tourism. If you are local we would really appreciate it if you take the time to complete it (10 min).
