Rainy River Seeking Tourism Centre


The town of Rainy River is expressing interest in taking ownership of one of Ontario's now-shuttered tourism centres.

The centre in Rainy River was among those closed in May as part of costing-saving measures.

Mayor Deb Ewald says they've since inquired about buying it for a dollar.

Ewald says part of their plans would be to reopen as a tourist centre and possible have the local Chamber of Commerce relocated there.

Ewald says the Province is now considering their offer.
