   Brad Brubaker , president of the Pennsylvania Dutch Convention & Visitors Bureau , said the Clarks couldn't sell to a better outfit. It will be an absolute positive to have ( HERSHEY RESORTS ) in town , he said. Hershey and Lancaster share many of the same visitors each year..
   
   Coincidentally , Brubaker said , television commercials produced by the visitor's this year featured both HERSHEYPARK and DUTCH WONDERLAND. Brubaker called DUTCH WONDERLAND a hallmark attraction to Lancaster County and he credited the Clark family for their contributions to the county's tourism industry. The whole family seemed to have that keen idea of what travelers wanted from Lancaster County , he said. They could always put a smile on a kid's face , and even more important , knew how to draw those kids and their families back to Lancaster County year after year. No doubt , they have been instrumental in solidifying and elevating Lancaster County as a tourist destination..
