The Chairperson of the Tourism Committee is invited to serve in an advisory capacity at all regularly scheduled Board of Directors meetings. A Vice-chair will be appointed by the current Chair and President/CEO before the next calendar year with the intention of the Vice Chair filling the role of Chair the following year. The Tourism Committee Chairperson may seek ad-hoc sub-committee chairs to coordinate various activities. These sub-committee chairs will serve as members of the Tourism Committee. Members-at-large are welcome to attend regular meetings of the Tourism Committee and its sub-committees.
