To our www.peninsuladailynews.com readers

Today is the day the spring/summer North Olympic Peninsula Newcomers’ and Visitors’ Guide makes its debut.

The 120-page Guide is the Peninsula’s largest, and with a distribution of 100,000 it’s also the most widely circulated.

Read about everything that’s special about Port Angeles, Port Townsend, Sequim-Dungeness Valley, Forks-West End, NorthWest Coast and Victoria.

Readers of the Peninsula Daily News get a sneak preview of the Guide as a bonus with today’s PDN editions as a way of saying thanks for their readership.

Later this week and through Labor Day weekend, visitors to the Peninsula will find this Guide available at hundreds of locations free of charge.

A special note to Web visitors: The entire Newcomers’ and Visitors’ Guide will be posted on this Web site in PDF format. Wherever you are in the world, please log onto the “Visitor Guide” link to see and read about the beauty and adventure of the North Olympic Peninsula.

If you visit here this spring or summer, be sure to pick up your copy of the Guide anywhere and everywhere in our beautiful area.
