Fogg inducted posthumously into Maine Tourism Association Hall of Fame

HALLOWELL – Chris Fogg was posthumously inducted into the the Maine Tourism Association Hall of Fame May 3. Fogg died in September.
MTA’s Hall of Fame was created to recognize outstanding individuals who through their leadership, dedication and professionalism have made significant and sustained contributions to the tourism industry in Maine. Every year one member of the association is chosen to be inducted at MTA’s annual meeting. This year’s meeting was held virtually on May 3 as part of the Governor’s Conference on Tourism.
Fogg was CEO of MTA for five years and was the executive director of the Bar Harbor Chamber of Commerce. Before that, he worked for the Vermont state chamber of commerce.
“Chris was a hard-working, positive and enthusiastic champion of the industry,” said Tony Cameron, MTA CEO. “He was an exceptional leader, mentor and friend; and we are honored to have him in our Hall of Fame.”
A video tribute to Fogg was produced by Sutherland Weston with family, friends, and colleagues sharing their recollections.
MTA’s Annual Meeting also included the election of new board members Brian Bickford, executive director of the Maine State Golf Association, and Curt Dale Clark, artistic director of the Maine State Music Theatre. Rick Martin of the Olympia Companies takes over duties as the chair of the board for the next two years. He replaces Rick Snow of Snow Enterprises, LLC, who served for the past two years.
