Who is on the Tourism Authority Board, and why do they have
such rapid changeover in executive directors?
The Commissioners considered Monday 9 January and made Tuesday 10 January
three appointments to the Tourism Authority:
Commissioner Joyce Evans (reappointment),
Jerome “Andy” Anderson (reappointment),
and Greg Charbeneau apparently to replace
Linda Jenson (who had been appointed to fill a vacancy for ? Montgomery).
5.a. Valdosta/Lowndes County Conference Center and Tourism Authority
County Manager Joe Pritchard said at the Tuesday Regular Session that
Greg Charbeneau is a Vice President at Wild Adventures.

According to
Wild Adventures’ own press release of 29 July 2011
and
the VDT 14 August 2011,
Greg Charbeneau is also their general manager.
We learned a little more at the Monday Work Session, but not much.

VLCCCTA’s own

has no indication that such a board even exists,
much less
