It could be the start of a new tourism trend in Vernon. The city's Tourism manager Michelle Jefferson says they seeing more 'walk-up' visitors than ever before this summer, people that don't pre book hotel rooms. Jefferson says most of the visitors are from Alberta and the Lower Mainland, but not so many Americans. She also says more local residents are taking vacations closer to home, such as camping at Fintry and Kekuli Bay. She says the number of people visiting the city's info centres in July was down five percent, but was stronger at the start of August
