Delco just won't be as much fun; we lost Tore Fiore

Delco just became a little less fun place to live and work.

We lost Tore Fiore.

Tore was the guy behind 'Destination Delco,' the new tourism campaign that replaced the venerable Brandywine Conference & Visitors Bureau.

The problem was that the county's tourism vehicle seemed to spend the bulk of its time promoting the Brandywine Valley, in particular items such as Brandywine Battlefield and the Brandywine River Museum.

That's a lot of Brandywine.

And not much Delco.

Tore Fiore decided to change that.

His idea was 'Destination Delco,' a rebranding campaign to focus on the things that make this county what it is - the people who live and work here.

We lost Tore Fiore last week after his two-year battle with cancer.

Like I said, the county just won't be as much fun anymore.
