Greymouths future is not in tourism


Do you think Greymouths future is in tourism? I don’t think so.  Let's face it
Hanmer puts way more effort into their hot pools and makes a profit out of it.


Really there is nothing to do in greymouth other than a few walks, the Regent
or the Recreation center (REC). This doesn't make Greymouth popular because
everywhere else you go you can do those sort of things there too. The Recreation
center doesn’t even have a cafe. You would think that if there is a pool, basketball
courts, tennis courts and the hockey field that there is some where you can sit down
get a cup of tea or coffee and some baking.


Greymouth is right now still building the hospital which is nearly a year overdue.
The other thing that they have just done is the REC which may have basketball
courts but they could of added cafes or whatever that would have made Greymouth
popular. How will Greymouth get Tourists if they can’t even finish buildings in time?
Tourists will only come if everything is on time won’t they?


How will Greymouth become a tourist place with so many places around all ready
are like Hanmer Springs with their hot pools, Hokitika with the jade. Greymouth has
had so many years to take after them but has not.


If the adults don’t do anything the future generation won’t either, kids take after
their parents. We are like sheep. Have you ever found that sheep do what the other
sheep do? Well that is us humans too.


Tourists normally speak different languages we have nothing and none here who can
help tourists with the language. Why come to a place if they can’t understand you?
Another thing is not many people have good experiences from Greymouth. I know
when there was a Greymouth swimming competition people were asking where can
we get a hot drink. The answer was nowhere.

From all of the reasons above there is nothing that makes me believe Greymouth’s
future is in tourism. Have you found that any of these things make Greymouth popular,
please prove me wrong I would love to see Greymouth full of tourism.
