SHENANDOAH

INTEGRATED CAMPAIGNS

Dreamers always
welcome

Sure, we all daydream. But some of us have discovered a place where those dreams come true—in the most unexpected, wondrous ways. A place where you can drift on rivers, even in the sky. Or find an undiscovered treasure on your plate, or in your glass. 

A place where waking up in the morning is the start of endless possibilities for adventure and celebration with friends, or refreshing your spirit in solitude. Whatever you dream of, come find it in Shenandoah County.

Find your
way back

The sense of escape is paramount, and visitors find themselves able to connect with nature and each other with unparalleled hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, and other outdoor activities. In addition, with a burgeoning brewery and winery scene, visitors are able to enjoy sophisticated cuisine and libations in quintessential American small towns.

Allowing Shenandoah County’s natural beauty to be the star of the show, we focused on breathtaking landscapes and activities, while encouraging visitors to “Find Your Way Back.” Shenandoah County is not only a place to visit, but it is a destination that allows you to return to the essentials that matter: laughing out loud, wide open spaces, feelings you’ve missed.

We'll be waiting

As social and travel restrictions kicked in at the dawn of the COVID-19 crisis, Shenandoah County Tourism wanted to accomplish two things: Encourage support of local businesses, while urging County residents to practice safe distancing; Remind those in the DC and Northern Virginia areas to stay home—while reminding them the untouched beauty of Shenandoah would still be here, when the time was right.

We quickly created a video—from existing and previously shot footage—showcasing not only the County’s natural beauty, but the irreplaceable local businesses that make Shenandoah so unique. A voiceover reminded viewers to “stay safe” by staying home, while striking the hopeful note that—before too long—we’d all be back enjoying what makes this place unlike any other.
