Just where is Point Breeze, NY? What I mean is that I thought everybody knew where it was, not so. Surprisingly we have plenty of those in Orleans County that are not even familiar with the place let alone those 50,60, 100 miles away. Sure we have lots of fishermen come in from other states throughout the year but what about our close neighbors. In talking with a few business owners I've found this to be a glaring need. To start with there is no signage to be had, 104, 31, the Thruway etc... There is nothing for those going east or west to even think the place exists.
What a great little gem in Orleans with boating, sailing, skiing, fishing, dining or simply an evening with a nice sunset yet I'm aware of a business owner in Medina who didn't even know the place was there until just a short time ago. Now whether it is the business owners themselves who must rally for a better ad campaign or a push for more publicity from county and state tourism organizations is not really my issue, but the truth is WE all benefit when people come from outside our area spend their money here and leave. FREE MONEY and a beautiful place to boot. Point Breeze should be on the map.
