    Stamp Flashes Number 14

    Number 14 – May, 2014 lighthousepassportclub.org Here Comes Summer! As we enter the summer months, lighthouse passport stamp collecting kicks into high gear. Passport orders from retail outlets indicate a growing interest in this hobby. We now have 1,300 Passport Club members and over 500 stamp locations. All of this is encouraging as your dollar donations continue to mount up and help preserve lighthouses and their history. Everywhere the U.S. Lighthouse Society tours, we find great enthusiasm for the program on the part of participating locations. The latest issue of Lighthouse Digest contains a nice article, called “A Passport to Lighthouse Fun & Preservation,” describing the program and its role in lighthouse preservation. We certainly hope that your summer travel plans include visits to lighthouses in pursuit of new stamps and award levels. Featured Multiple Stamp Location In past Stamp Flashes we have highlighted some locations that have more than one stamp for the same lighthouse. Here we highlight an example of a location that has stamps for a lens, a museum and a lightship. The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Museum in Virginia currently has two different stamps for the Portsmouth Lightship (one at the lightship and one at the museum), two different stamps for the Museum itself and a brand new stamp for the Hog Island First Order Fresnel Lens, making this a five stamp location. The Museum is located on the waterfront at 2 High Street in Portsmouth. Remember that maritime museums with lighthouse exhibits, life saving stations and lenses can all be used to complete your passport book.

    Inquiry into Heritage Tourism and Ecotourism Tourism Victoria Submission Tourism Victoria is the Victorian Government’s lead tourism agency and aims to market and grow the State’s tourism industry. In achieving these objectives, Tourism Victoria implements State Government policies as they relate to tourism development in Victoria and contribute to whole of government programs and policy implementation. Heritage and nature-based tourism are an important part of Victoria’s overall tourism offering and have been the focus of many of Tourism Victoria’s strategies and marketing activity. Tourism Victoria’s overarching Jigsaw campaign, with the slogan ‘You’ll love every piece of Victoria’, promotes the State’s diversity. It identifies Victoria’s product strengths, including natural attractions, skiing, arts, theatre and culture, shopping, food and wine, spa and wellbeing, special events and exhibitions. This paper sets out Tourism Victoria’s engagement with the heritage tourism and ecotourism sectors and summarises relevant tourism data. It highlights the importance the two sectors in terms of overall visitation and spend in the State. These sectors are also part of the Victorian Government’s broader tourism strategies and policies to grow the Victorian tourism industry. On 23 July 2013, the Minister for Tourism and Major Events, the Hon Louise Asher MP, released Victoria’s 2020 Tourism Strategy. The Strategy outlines a plan to grow the state’s overnight tourism expenditure to $24.7 billion by 2020, or growth of 6.6 per cent per annum. The Strategy, which was developed in consultation with industry and other stakeholders, identifies the following seven priority action areas: Digital Excellence – improving the state’s capabilities across all digital platforms and encouraging local tourism operators to adopt capabilities such as online bookings.
