The City of Orillia Economic Recovery Task Force looking for feedback on the 2021 See You on the Patio program from residents, visitors, and local businesses.
The program highlights restaurants throughout the city that offer open-air dining through a promotional campaign, animation program, and summer street closure on Fridays and Saturdays in the downtown core, which ran from July 2 to Sept. 4, 2021.
The city-wide See You on the Patio program was developed by the City of Orillia and local business support organizations (Downtown Orillia Management Board, Orillia & Lake Country Tourism, the Orillia District Chamber of Commerce, and the Orillia Area Community Development Corporation). The program was designed to help bars and restaurants expand their seating, promote patronage to local restaurants, and stimulate traffic to local retailers.
Anyone who takes the survey is eligible to qualify for a draw to win one of two prizes of $100 Downtown Dollars.
One winner will be drawn from the visitor survey responses and one from the business survey responses. The surveys will be active until Friday, Nov. 5, 2021 at noon.
