The Louisiana Travel Promotion Association (LTPA) recently announced the Natchitoches Convention and Visitors Bureau as a Premium Partner, the highest level of membership in the association.

LTPA’s Premium Partners receive greater exposure at major LTPA events, while also having the opportunity to engage more of their staff and board in the inner-workings of the statewide tourism industry.

“As a long-time member of LTPA, we are honored to dive deeper into the collective state tourism promotion efforts,” said Arlene Gould, Executive Director. “This organization has worked to lead and strengthen Louisiana’s tourism industry for 56 years, and I look forward to working even closer with them to keep the momentum going.”

Other Premium Partners include Alexandria/Pineville CVB, Ascension Parish Tourist Commission, Bayou Lafourche CVB, Jeff Davis Tourist Commission, Jefferson Parish CVB, Lafayette CVC, Lake Charles/Southwest Louisiana CVB, Livingston Parish CVB, Monroe-West Monroe CVB, New Orleans Plantation Country, Sabine Parish Tourist Commission, Shreveport-Bossier CTB, St. Tammany Parish Tourist Commission, Vernon Parish Tourist Commission, Visit Baton Rouge and West Baton Rouge CVB.

“We value our Premium Partners for their dedication to the growth of statewide tourism,” said Jill Kidder, LTPA President and CEO. “Together, we are supporting a crucial revenue-producing, job-creating industry for Louisiana.”
