PROGRAM VARRATIVE'STATEMENT
1. Objectives and Need for Assistance.
The purpose of this project is to encourage Canadians to visit the United
States and Corpus Christi, Texas. The scope of this project is an adver-
tising campaign in newspapers and magazines in Canada to stimulate tourism
in the United States and Corpus Christi, Texas. It is proposed that media
advertising in Canada be directed towards metropolitan areas as Montreal,
Toronto and Winnipeg-.
The Corpus Christi area has in excess of two million visitors annually.
This number includes both foreign and domestic tourists. The Corpus Christi
area exhibits two distinct seasonal tourist patterns - the winter extending
through December through March and the summer extending from the Easter holiday
period until the Labor Day holiday. Differentiation in tourist types is
strongly aligned with seasonal variations while differentiation in destination
areas is less precise.
,visitors to Corpus Christi during the summer are predominantly auto traveling
tourists who stay in local motels, shop, visit the beaches and use motel
facilities for swimming, eating, and evening entertainment. The origins of
these summer tourists are predominantly within Texas especially the larger
cities such as Houston, Dallas, Port Worth and San Antonio.
During the winter months the majority consists of tourists of older and retired
persons who originate from the mid- Western states and Canada. The most important
attractions for these winter tourists are the combined aspects of mild winter
climate and good local fishing. The proximity of the Mexican border and the
mild climate of the Rio Grande Valley also affect winter tourist traffic
-5-
through the Corpus Christi region. To sgme extent the availability of
Mexico serves as an added attraction for winter tourists to the Corpus
Christi area.
Tourism amounts to approximately $170 million in the local economy annually-
making it a significant part of the economy.
Major tourist attractions include Padre Island National Seashore, Lake Corpus
Christi, the Aransas National Wildlife Refugs,'Goose Island State Park, the
Corpus Christi Museum, the Art Museum of South Texas, the Welder Wildlife
Refuge at Sinton, and the Naval Air Station in Corpus Christi.
Table 1-1 shoos employment in the Corpus Christi SMSA in major businesses
whose dollar volume of trade varies directly with tourism- -servi.ce stations,
eating and drinking places, entertainment and recreation services, and
lodging places. Seventy -two percent of the total is employed in lodging and
eating and drinking places. All of thisAeriployment is not due to tourism..
People employed and earning income in other sectors of the economy, support
c
part of these tourist- related enterprises.
Overall, these figures understate the importance of tourism to the local
economy, as do employment figures for any single industry. Tourist related
'businesses spend money and create jobs in construction; business and repair
services; finance, real estate and insurance; and so on. Those employed in
tourist - related businesses just as do those employed in manufacturing, spend
their income at car dealers, doctor's offices, department stores, service
stations, restaurants,-and so forth.
Table 1 -2 compares employment in tourist related business in the Corpus
Christi SMSA with the twenty largest metropolitan areas in Texas and Tlith
the nine metropolitan areas in Florida (the fastest growing tourist area
is the United States in the 1960's). These figures shoot not only the relative

importance of tourism employment in Corpus Christi, but also indicate
those sectors of the economy where increased tourist trade will result in
Job opportunities. For example, increased tourism will most likely not
create more jobs in service stations, as is sometimes thought. There
seems to be no relationship among metropolitan areas between tourism and
this type of employment. Increased tourism would most likely increase
business at service stations, but not employment at service stations.
Tourism usually creates a relatively large number of Sobs in lodging places.
Of the other nineteen largest metropolitan areas in'Texas, thirteen have
a large percent of their total employment in tourist related activities.
All metropolitan areas in Florida have a larger percent of total employment
in these activities than does Corpus Christi. One reason for thi&ls that
tourism in Corpus Christi might be more "out -of- doors ".oriented tban in"
other areas. Since most jobs related to tourism are in eating and drinking
places and lodging places, increased tourism in Corpus Christi would not
create as many Sobs as the same increase in the number of tourists else-
where; e.g., compared to other areas, a larger percentage of tourists in
Corpus Christi would be likely to camp rather than stay, in a motel or hotel.
The structure of the tourist industry in Corpus Christi and the surrounding
area is not the same as in other areas. .Moreover, Corpus Christi "is a
destination area for tourists, as is Galveston and McAllen. Thus, it does
not enjoy the transient trade of E1 Paso, Dallas, or Beaumont might have.
The local Corpus Christi Area Convention and Tourist Bureau spends approximately
$ 450,000 annually in its efforts to generate tourism. The need for Federal
assistance in this proposed advertising campaign is quite significant in
that local funds to finance the entire project are currently unavailable.
2. Results or Benefits Expected.
It is anticipated that approximately 15,000 Canadians will be attracted to
the Corpus Christi area as a result of the proposed media advertisement program
-9-
focused at the larger Canadian metropolitan areas during the-fall and
winter of 1977 -78. It is anticipated that the duration of their visit
will be from one to three weeks in which time approximately $35 per person
will be spent per day.
To further stimulate Canadian tourism to Corpus Christi, on October 14 -16,
1978 the Canadian Davis Cup tennis team will be playing the top Texans in a
tournament at Padre Isles- Corpus Christi. Air Canada has agreed to fly the
team here at their expense. The Padre Isles Country Club will sponsor the
tournament with the assistance of the Corpus Christi Tennis Association. The
teams will be housed, boarded and entertained at Padre Island and by members
of the Corpus Christi Tennis Association.
Padre Isles, which has a large number of Canadian property owners, along
with the Tennis Association, will videotape the tournament and send it to the
Canadian television network for a 1 -1/2 hours length showing in Canada.
It is anticipated that a number of Canadian publications will also
send writers and photographers to cover the event.
"3. Approach.
a. It is proposed that media advertising be conducted in the following
Publications: Reader's Divest (Canada), Touring & Travel (Ontario Edition),
the Toronto o Star and the Winnipeg Free Press.
b. Projections for media advertising are as follows:
Reader's Digest - December, 1977
Toron_ too Star - 6 insertions between October, 1977 and January, 1978
Winnipeg Free Press - 8 insertions between October, 1977 and January, 1978
Touring & Travel - December, 1977
C. Data to be collected and maintained on program accomplishments include:
1. Number of Canadian tourists on supervised tours.
2. Number of inquiries registered as a result of the media advertising
program.
-10-
3. Number of Canadian travel writers, tour operators and wholesaler,
Who will visit the Corpus' Christi area in 1977 -78 in conjunction
with familiarization tours as a result of the proposed media
campaign. '
d. The City of Corpus Christi will contract with the Corpus Christi Area
Convention and Tourist Bureau to carry out the proposed media advertisement.
Mr. Bob Conwell, Project Director, is the Executive Vice President of the
Corpus Christi Area Convention and Tourist Bureau. He has served in this
capacity since July, 1955. He is one of the nine men on the Texas Tourist
Development Agency Advisory Board which advertises the tourist aspects
of the State of Texas. He is also a member of the State's Advertising
Committee. In April, 1976 he was elected Chairman of the Discover Texas
Association, the private sector branch of Texas Touristm.
e, Geographic Location.
The City of Corpus Christi is located on the west shore of Corpus Christi
Bay in the southern portion of the State of Texas, in Nueces County, being
geographically situated approximately twenty -four miles inland from-the
Gulf of Mexico.
Corpus Christi's latitude is 27 degrees, 45 minutes north and longitude 97
degrees, 25 minutes west.
Its relative position on the Texas Gulf Coast may be designated as approxi-
mately 125 miles north of the Rio Grande River and 250 miles in a south-
westerly direction from the point where the estuary of the Sabine River
empties into the Gulf of Mexico.
Corpus Christi's Metropolitan Area comprises Nueces, Aransas and San
Patricio counties. ,
