SCIENCE NORTH EARNS FODOR’S CHOICE 2008 DISTINCTION


Fodor’s Travel, the foremost name in travel publishing, has named Science North and Dynamic Earth as 2008 Fodor’s Choice selections. This distinction recognizes a remarkable achievement for Science North and Dynamic Earth.

Since 1988, Fodor’s Travel has been awarding the Fodor’s Choice distinction to only the very best hotels, restaurants and attractions around the world. Fodor’s writers experience, examine and evaluate thousands of hotels, restaurants and attractions. While every hotel, restaurant or attraction included in a Fodor’s guide is deemed worth a traveler’s time, only fifteen percent of those selections receive the Fodor’s Choice designation.

“From hidden-away restaurants to can't-miss museums, Fodor’s Choice selections recognize the top sights, properties, and experiences our editors and updaters have found in their travels,” says Fodor’s publisher Tim Jarrell. “These places are the best of the best, providing a remarkable experience in their price range or category.”

As a 2008 Fodor’s Choice recipient Science North and Dynamic Earth will receive special recognition in Fodor’s guidebooks as currently being among the best in their field. Both attractions will also be recognized with special placement on Fodors.com.

“This is an outstanding achievement for Science North, Dynamic Earth and Sudbury,” said Jim Marchbank, Science North CEO. “1.5 million unique users visit the Fodors.com website each month to access travel information. Having both attractions highlighted as 2008 Fodor’s Choice selections means both science centres and the City of Greater Sudbury will be recognized by travelers from around the world, as two of the best places to visit.”
