The century mark as a landmark…Resort Maps achieves 100- map milestone

WAITSFIELD, VERMONT…

 

Resort Maps, creator of customized travel maps, has made a name for itself by showcasing local advertisers for tourists and residents and encouraging them to enjoy the journey as well as their final destination. Holding true to that philosophy, Resort Maps, with maps across the United States, United Kingdom, Costa Rica and Puerto Rico, recently celebrated the publishing of its 100 map location.

 

Resort Maps are colorful, hand-drawn maps of towns and cities, distributed free to area visitors at travel information and rest areas as well as at advertiser locations. Each map highlights local attractions and things to do, restaurants, accommodations, retail shops, real estate and other services. Each advertiser on the map is represented with a display ad on the perimeter of the map, including a color-coded grid locator and their actual building hand-drawn, highlighted and labeled, making it easy to locate.

"The journey to 100 maps has been quite a ride, but it's an accomplishment we're quite proud of," said Peter Hans, president of Resort Maps. "With people traveling less or staying local for their vacations, it's really increased the value of our maps. So, while we'll take a step back and briefly celebrate 100, our sights are set on the next milestone, 150."

 

Resort Maps began creating and publishing maps in the northeastern U.S. back in 1986. In an effort to continue the company's growth and simultaneously keep the quality of the product, Resort Maps became a franchisor in 1993. Since adopting the franchise model, Resort Maps has grown steadily to 100 maps distributed across 20 states as well as towns and cities in England and Puerto Rico.

 

In 2010, Resort Maps will print and publish nearly 20 million maps. And besides travelers, more and more opportunity seekers are becoming fans of Resort Maps.

 

"Resort Maps is truly a unique and appealing franchise opportunity. It's not a 9-to-5 gig, you don't need to take out office space and you don't necessarily have to work 12 months a year to run a successful franchise. You just have to be willing to work hard when you work," said Hans. "With more and more people looking to escape the corporate world for an opportunity that gives them some freedom and flexibility and great earning potential, 150 maps is certainly a tangible goal as we attract more franchisees-- hopefully one we can meet within the next couple of years."

What are the brand and model numbers of the clock radios in Summit rooms at that Grand Sierra Resort in Reno.?

These clock radios have two fairly large speakers on the sides. Button on top is snooze/backlight. External jack hooks up to devices such as mp3 players. AM/FM. Most importantly these units play sounds... 4 types of preprogrammed songs (jazz, guitar, spa and something else) as well as preprogrammed nature sounds (surf, rain, babbling brook and white noise). Perhaps you've not been to this hotel but the unit still sounds familiar to you.

Contact the hotel.

Sometimes they use stuff that is not available to the general public because the manufacturers sell them a different version.

Good luck.
