The Massillon/Westark Tourism Council, an affiliate of the Massillon Area Chamber of Commerce, has works actively on behalf of the community. In association with the Stark County Convention and Visitors Bureau, we help to increase tourism spending and jobs in western Stark County by building recognition of our area as a tourist attraction. In the process we are also bolstering community pride.

We have published and distributed more than 200,000 Massillon "Treasures and Traditions" brochures, established a community information booth for visibility at events such as the playoff games, and advertised Massillon's attractions in regional and state publications. The Council has presented Community Day, sponsored dozens of historic walking tours, and assisted with large community events such as the Lillian Gish Film Festival and RezzyFest. The council represents western Stark County at tourism conferences and will offer an Elder Hostel program based on the unique history, architectural beauty, and economic and sports strengths of the community.

We feel confident that we have made a great start toward attracting visitors to Massillon and encouraging our own neighbors to take advantage of their surroundings, but we need the input of the businesses and attractions which are directly and indirectly involved in the tourism industry. To become part of the process, contact the Massillon Area Chamber of Commerce office.
