Introduction

In November 2009, Tourism Kamloops' 'Hometown Boy' advertising campaign won the Innovative Marketing Campaign Award at the first-ever tourism summit organized by the Canada-based Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association1 (TOTA). The campaign was given the award for successfully using various advertising mediums such as TV, print, direct mail, and online advertising to attract tourists to the city of Kamloops. Talking about the campaign, TOTA chairman, Michael Ballingall (Ballingall), said, "This campaign has been a huge success on many levels. It matches a likeable personality with the Tourism Kamloops brand, which presents Kamloops as a place that blends energizing recreational opportunities with a culture of warm, welcoming people, allowing visitors to let loose and just play."2
