Make a Baby Vacation Promotion Falls Flat

Tourist towns love trapping them some tourists, but a promotion about procreation was apparently going too far for one East Coast destination. A letter sent to hospitality establishments in Ocean City, Md. asked them to get on board with the OC Makes 3! promotion - encouraging folks to come to town to make a baby for Valentine’s Day. The response? Let’s just say don’t start dialing up a baby swimsuit maker yet. According to Ocean City Today, the hoteliers were so upset the town’s tourism department is denying it ever seriously considered the idea - although the paper has a copy of the memo sent out to folks in the hospitality industry that maps the whole thing out.
