Tourism Council Vacancies

The Fremont County Tourism Council (F.C.T.C.) is soliciting letters of interest from Fremont County residents for two positions each consisting of a three year term on the council. The F.C.T.C. develops and administrates a Tourism Marketing Plan for Fremont County with proceeds from the two percent Fremont County Lodging Tax.

F.C.T.C. members are required to attend monthly meetings, as well as any other meetings as voted on by the council. Attendance at certain community meeting pertaining to tourism development may also be required. These positions are for voluntary service with no compensation or reimbursements of any kind.

Your letter of interest addressed as 'Fremont County Tourism Council Letter of Interest' must be received at the Fremont County Administration Building, 615 Macon Ave. Room 105 Canon City, Colorado 81212, no later than October 31, 2006 at 5:00 P.M. M.D.T. All letters submitted after this date will not be considered.

The F.C.T.C. will review all letters submitted and make a recommendation of appointments to the F.C.T.C. to the County Commissioners. Those submitting letters of interest may be contacted by the Commissioners for an interview.

Your employment or ownership in a tourism related business as defined by the Colorado Tourism Office will be a determining factor in the F.C.T.C.'s recommendation. Your employment or ownership in a specific tourism related business as detailed in the F.C.T.C by-laws as adopted by the Fremont County Commissioners will govern all recommendations made by the F.C.T.C. to the Fremont County Commissioners.

The Commissioners will appoint those chosen to serve on the F.C.T.C. Tourism Council. Members whose terms expire include Vicky Casey and Kelly Ann McHugh. Both are eligible for reappointment. McHugh was appointed to the council last April to fill an unexpired term but since the three year term is set to expire at the end of this year an appointment must again be made for that seat.

Any questions on this notice can be addressed to either F.C.T.C. Chairperson Vicky Casey at 275-5149 or F.C.T.C. Secretary Danny De George at 269-8245.
