The NH Travel Council produces the annual NH Governor's Conference on Travel & Tourism each spring. The conference site moves each year to highlight different parts of our beautiful state. This year the conference was held in Bartlett at the Attitash Grand Summit Hotel and Conference Center on May 5 and 6.

Founded in 1974, The New Hampshire Travel Council has continually evolved to enhance and encourage the development of the travel and tourism industry in NH. The Travel Council provides news that businesses can use through its electronic newsletter. Their website serves as a portal to a variety of organizations and additional resources of which businesses may not otherwise be aware.


Valerie Drouin, Senior Vice President, represented Laconia Savings Bank at this year’s conference. “The conference offers those in the travel and tourism business an opportunity to network with other business professionals, and provides a venue to stay informed on issues that have the potential to impact businesses throughout the state. This year’s event was especially successful with the bank’s sponsorship of Samantha Brown, host of several Travel Channel shows. Samantha shared many of her travel experiences and was very happy to be back visiting the state where she spent her early years as a proud graduate of Pinkerton Academy.”
