Tourist commission to bring back ‘Russell County’ as part of branding

It’s been a busy week for the Lake Cumberland Tourist Commission as they’ve accepted much-needed ARPA funds and met with state officials, but as Danielle Wilson, the commission’s executive director, told WJRS NEWS, it is also now time to bring back Russell County as part of the commission’s image and branding…

Wilson said those much-talked-about funds the commission received will go a long way toward the reimaging the commission has in mind…

 

At this week’s tourist commission board meeting, Wilson announced the commission collected $3,904.42 in transient tax in December of 2022, which is near the average for December looking back at the last several years.
