Destination Door County wants you to know how vital the “front lines” of the area’s tourism industry are in terms of its success. The organization recently wrapped up its third annual Hospitality Heroes campaign, allowing business owners, residents, and visitors to nominate the people who have made living, working, and playing in Door County a memorable experience. Over 130 nominations were received to compliment individuals who served local businesses in positions like bartender, server, receptionist, and more. Many nominations praised the individuals for their upbeat attitude, knowledge of Door County, and dedication to their job. Destination Door County President and CEO Julie Gilbert says their hospitality heroes are vital to ensuring everyone’s visit to Door County is remembered.

While plenty of jobs were available this summer, Gilbert says the influx of 500 international students made things much easier for local businesses trying to fill positions. Elizabeth Wuesthoff from Twelve Eleven Wine Bar was randomly selected among all nominees as this year’s prize package winner.
