Wisconsin tribes promote tourism opportunities


Tribes in Wisconsin are wrapping up the fifth annual Native American Tourism Conference today.

Sponsored by Native American Tourism of Wisconsin, the conference aims to show tribes how they can tap into the tourism industry. Tom Hutchinson, a consultant, said the market is growing due to Indian gaming.

"It has really mushroomed in the last ten years," Hutchinson told The Rhinelander Daily News. "This is happening all over the state."

NATOW represents Wisconsin's 11 tribes.
