Oneida County Tourism is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Per Bylaws, the Board structure is nine to twelve At-Large voting members representing tourism industry segments plus four Ex-Officio non-voting members from County Government. We strive to maintain balance across industry segments as well as balanced representation from communities across the County.
