The Town of Eastend and the RM of White Valley Number 49 have been recognized for their Tourism campaign "Discover a Sanctuary For Your Senses..Discover Eastend Saskatchewan".

They received a Saskatchewan Municipal Award in the Regional Cooperation Category for their tourism and branding campaign.

Rosa Vazquez-Ring is the Tourism and Economic Development Officer for the Town of Eastend. She says the Town and the RM have worked very closely together on the Campaign.

"We have been recognized..the Campaign has actually won a few awards. And most important is, it has given us more name recognition."

The awards were handed out to winning rural municipalities at the SARM Midterm Convention held in Saskatoon on November 14  and the RM of White Valley received their award then.

The Town of Eastend will receive their award at the annual SUMA Convention in Saskatoon in February.
