VILLAGE OF PINEHURST RETAINS WILSONMcGUIRE CREATIVE

WINSTON-SALEM, NC – WilsonMcGuire Creative has been retained by the Village of Pinehurst to develop and establish a brand positioning for the charming municipality.

The Village of Pinehurst, population 15,000, is located in Moore County, about 60 miles southwest of Raleigh. Founded in 1895 by James Walker Tufts, the Village was developed along with and surrounding Pinehurst Resort. It was planned with assistance from Frederick Law Olmstead, the designer of New York’s famed Central Park. With its historic homes, manicured grounds and curvilinear streets, the Village spans approximately 14 square miles and resembles a New England style parish.

The company specializes in travel/tourism/hospitality and sports/event marketing and has served as agency of record for Pinehurst Resort since 2003 and the Wyndham Championship since 2008.
