My experience has been that they are more than willing to put a brochure in
their racks. When I worked at the New Brunswick Museum I gained permission
from most of the hotels/motels/B&B's to have tent cards placed on the night
tables in the rooms. I had to supply them with the cards. Although too late
for this season...I would develop a marketing plan with your local hotels
etc to have your site included in thier promotional materials. Looking at it
at a small scale donation or sponsorship. It would really cost them little,
but would show their customers what there is to do in the area or
surrounding area. Hope this helps a little.
