YBP Teams with National Geographic on a Regional
MapGuide
The
Yellowstone Business Partnership is working with the National
Geographic Society’s Center for Sustainable Destinations and
other
partners in Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana in a project to celebrate and
help
sustain the world-class natural and cultural heritage of the Greater
Yellowstone region. Since April 15th, residents from every corner of
the Greater Yellowstone region have been nominating their favorite
places, events and activities for inclusion on a Geotourism MapGuide.
Drawing on the expertise of visitors and residents of the region, the
National Geographic Society is producing the map, which is centered on
Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks and includes surrounding
communities and public lands in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming...(READ

Take Part in Regional Meetings
On February 28 the Yellowstone Business Partnership (YBP) held a
tri-state video conference that temporarily solved an all too common
problem shared by residents of the Greater Yellowstone region: the
challenge of collaboration between far-flung cities.
The purpose of the video conference was to begin strategic economic
planning based on the YBP report, Turning on the Off-Season, which
thoroughly maps out the challenges facing the 25 counties that surround
Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks.
The next regional meetings are open to the public. Citizens, educators,
business owners, and members of local agencies, chambers of commerce,
professional organizations, and economic development groups that missed
the video conference are encouraged to participate in the selection of
a project.
Meetings are currently scheduled for the Pocatello,
Idaho
Falls and Billings
