Baker County TDC orders brochure holders, explores county brochure and QR options

The Baker County Tourist Development Council voted to order countertop brochure holders to distribute tourism materials across lodging and visitor locations and discussed producing a county brochure with a digital option.

At the Dec. 4 meeting, members debated printed trifolds versus QR-code-driven digital pages. Jessica Pravatt, identified in the meeting as "with the press," volunteered to design a brochure and a digital option to complement physical materials. A board member proposed starting with 10–30 small countertop holders for hotels, restaurants and visitor counters.

Unidentified Speaker 4 moved to order 30 four-pack countertop brochure holders from Staples; Sarah provided a cost figure the meeting recorded as "91770". The transcript records a second, a voice vote with ayes and the motion passing; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript. The numeric value was not clarified during the meeting and appears to be a formatting transcription of the calculated price; the precise dollar amount and currency-format should be confirmed by TDC staff.

Board members said they would place holders in lodging, the RV park and convenience stores and update materials as event dates change. The group discussed using in-house printing to reduce costs, and one member noted that some lodgings (Hilton, cited in the meeting) limit larger display stands.

Next steps: the TDC will proceed with the 30-count order, have the brochure design drafted by the volunteer designer, and coordinate distribution with lodging and visitor sites.
