Residents and business owners have until November 14th to provide their input.
OXFORD - Tourism Oxford is about to close the online surveys for residents and business owners.
Tourism Officer Karlee Slattery says they launched last month in order to gather some input before making plans for next year.
"We do this annually to learn a bit about what's happening in the tourism world. We're able to learn about the economic, social, environmental and customer service impacts so we can shape the policies and programs that reflect local needs and priorities."
Residents and business owners who fill them out before Saturday's deadline will be entered for a chance to win a $100 gift card to a local restaurant.
Tourism Oxford also launched a third survey geared towards visitors , but it will remain open until the end of the year. Those who respond to that survey will have a shot at winning an Oxford overnight package.
Slattery says the questions are different for each survey.
"We like to learn a bit about how peoples visit was when they were in the county for visitors. For residents, we want to hear about what they would like to see in the area for them to be able to use in their daily life. With tourism operators, we want to hear about good news stories, the numbers and who is visiting them."
