Tallapoosa County tourism director appointed to state committee

Gabrielle Jansen / The Outlook Tallapoosa County Tourism director Sandra Fuller spoke at a chamber luncheon Thursday.

Sandra Fuller's efforts as Tallapoosa County tourism director have gotten the attention of Gov. Kay Ivey.

Fuller has been leading the efforts of the Tallapoosa County Commission to promote the area’s natural resources and activities to tourists and will now help guide a state course of study. Ivey appointed Fuller to the ‘Hospitality and Tourism Committee.’ The committee is part of the Alabama State Department of Education course of study review for career and technical education. But Fuller’s input started more than a year ago through committees on the matter of developing skills for the hospitality industry during the formative years of education.
