Glacier Country, the official tourism marketing, management and stewardship organization for Western Montana, is seeking applicants for positions on its volunteer board. Applicants must live in Lake, Lincoln, Mineral, Missoula or Ravalli counties, and work in a tourism-related business or organization.

“This is an important and dynamic time to be in the tourism industry,” says Racene Friede, Glacier Country President and CEO.

“Hundreds of businesses in our eight-county region depend on tourism and visitors for their livelihood, yet we need to maintain a balance with the resident sentiment,” she said. “Glacier Country is focused on ensuring economic sustainability while preserving the quality of life for residents and quality of place for visitors and residents alike.”

Those interested can find more information and online applications at partners.glaciermt.com/board-of-directors. Application deadline is Nov. 15.

Western Montana’s Glacier Country is recognized by the Tourism Advisory Council (TAC) and the state of Montana as the official marketing and management organization for Western Montana. The organization is funded in part by the state accommodations tax and by private membership funds. Geographically, Glacier Country includes Flathead, Glacier, Lake, Lincoln, Mineral, Missoula, Ravalli and Sanders counties.
