The Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce & CVB has announced key staff updates that reflect the organization’s commitment to enhancing member services and supporting the local business community. These strategic changes include new hires and promotions that will drive marketing initiatives, member engagement, and overall community presence.
Megan Seeley was promoted to marketing director at the organization. Previously, she served as the marketing manager of the Lake George Regional Convention & Visitors Bureau, where she was instrumental in promoting the region to group business in the form of conventions, meetings, sports events, weddings, motorcoach group tours, and more.
In her new role, she oversees the marketing and communications efforts for chamber members as well as consumer and group tourism markets with the Convention & Visitors Bureau. As marketing director, she will develop overall marketing strategies for the chamber and the LGRCVB, oversees the marketing plans for both organizations, and manages the promotion of chamber and member events. She is also responsible for maintaining the chamber’s presence in the community through participation in events and committees.
“I am thrilled to lead our marketing team and develop initiatives that will elevate tourism and strengthen our community connections. Working with growing audiences is incredibly exciting, as it allows us to introduce more people to the beauty and charm of the Lake George region. Together, we can showcase all that this area has to offer, from stunning landscapes to vibrant local businesses. I look forward to collaborating with our team and community to create memorable experiences for visitors and foster a thriving tourism industry,” said Seeley.
The chamber has welcomed Molly Fitscher as the new marketing coordinator for the Convention & Visitors Bureau. Fitscher holds a bachelor of fine arts from Alfred University and a media arts certificate from SUNY Adirondack.
Her previous experience includes roles as a design intern at Black Dog and a marketing intern at Park Street Hospitality, where she excelled in creating mockups, redesigning menus, and developing brand identities.
At the LGRCVB, she will collaborate with the marketing director to execute comprehensive marketing plans, create and place paid advertisements, manage social media, update digital platforms, and craft engaging email marketing campaigns.
“Molly Fitscher brings a fresh perspective to our marketing efforts as the new marketing coordinator,” said the executive director. “Our organization looks forward to enhancing our marketing strategies with our refreshed team.”
