Marine City to Launch Hometown CAM to Boost Tourism and Community Engagement
The Marine City Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the upcoming installation of a Hometown CAM, a live-streaming camera aimed at enhancing the city’s visibility, promoting local businesses, and engaging the community. The installation is set for March 18th, with an anticipated go-live date of March 22nd. This will be StreamTime LIVE’S first Hometown Cam in Michigan.
Bringing Marine City to the World
The Hometown CAM will be positioned atop a building along Water Street on the river side,
capturing stunning views of the St. Clair River, local events, and daily life in Marine City’s
historic downtown. This initiative will provide:
Boosted Tourism: Ship enthusiasts, nature lovers, and potential visitors will have a
front-row seat to Marine City’s unique waterfront and attractions, encouraging more
people to explore the town firsthand.
Increased Business Visibility: The live stream will promote local shops, restaurants, and
activities, creating a direct link between online exposure and economic growth.
Community Engagement: Residents can take pride in showcasing their hometown,
fostering a deeper sense of connection and involvement.
Stronger Digital Presence: This initiative will position Marine City as a vibrant and
welcoming destination, reaching audiences far beyond Michigan’s borders.
Project Funding and Support
The Marine City Chamber of Commerce along with the Marine City Community and Economic Development Board have committed funds for this project in order to bring this vision to life. Additionally, the Blue Water Convention and Visitor Bureau has provided additional funding. Collectively the funds will be used for the purchase of equipment, installation and maintenance.
This initiative is being launched in partnership with StreamTime LIVE, the same organization
that brings 24/7 live ship CAM streaming to audiences worldwide. Their expertise in live
streaming will help ensure a high-quality experience for viewers and maximize the reach of
Marine City’s waterfront and downtown attractions.
A Worthwhile Investment
By supporting this project, Marine City will gain:
Increased Foot Traffic: More visitors drawn by the CAM’s live stream will contribute to
local businesses and events.
Improved Branding: Marine City will stand out as a forward-thinking, digitally connected
community.
Long-Term Community Engagement: The CAM will feature seasonal events, waterfront
activities, and everyday life, fostering civic pride.
Conclusion
In today’s digital age, communities that embrace technology thrive. The Hometown CAM is an
opportunity to showcase Marine City’s charm, support local businesses, and strengthen
community ties. The Marine City Chamber of Commerce encourages support for this initiative
to help ensure the city continues to grow and prosper.
