Click to edit Master title styleDraft Cluster Findings

Health care is a large cluster, but has been affected by the population decline

Look for convergence across economic clusters - connect hospitality, recreation and nature with interest in wellness and healthy, outdoor lifestyles

This sector offers opportunities to help re-brand the region as a wellness center and build on recreation amenities

Promote specialties such as orthopedics, training and conditioning for elite athletes

Prepare draft prosperity plan summer 2010 for review and input by agencies, the community and partners
