Davis Area CVB Promotes 'Tourism in your own Backyard' for all Davis County elementary students.

In 2005 the Davis Area CVB began a campaign “Have a Summer of Fun in Davis County” to help educate elementary students about tourism in Davis County by sending home over 35,000 flyers to every student at the end of the school year. The flyers list attractions, main events and cultural arts for students to visit through out the summer.

In 2006 a contest was added to encourage visitation and participation. All children that visited each of the venues received a validation stamp, brought in their flyer to the Davis Area CVB and received a Cool Prize. Their name was then entered into a Grand Prize Drawing to be eligible to win one of four Grand Prizes, a Lagoon Season Pass or a Cherry Hill Season Pass.

The campaign and contest have had a great response over the years not only from the kids but from the parents as well. This year the Davis Area CVB will be distributing over 43,000 flyers to the school district as well as the Davis County charter schools.

"When Birds of a Feather MURDER Together"

"When Birds of a Feather MURDER Together"

The 14th annual Great Salt Lake Bird Festival May 17-21, 2012 explores this very question.

One crow by itself is nothing to worry about, but a group of crows is a MURDER! And a group of their larger cousins, the ravens, while not so sinister is known as an UNKINDNESS. Do you know bird group names and how the names originated? For example, can you guess why a group of Mourning Doves might be called a PITYING? How about this, do you know the difference between a SKEIN of geese and a GAGGLE of geese? Which group of birds would you feel most secure being with (a group of ducks is a SAFE)? What group of birds would get you in hot water (a KETTLE is a group of flying hawks).

Hey, did you hear what those starlings were saying about you (a MURMURATION of starlings)! Can you guess which species these bird group names belong to: herd, fling, charm, host?
