The Skagit Tourism Bureau, created to promote the area worldwide as a travel destination, has hired Jake Buganski as the organization's first CEO. Buganski joins the organization after most recently serving as vice president of strategy at Tempest, a Philadelphia-based digital marketing and customer relationship management company for the travel and tourism industry. Prior to that, he held several public sector and government positions in the tourism industry, serving as executive director at Visit South Jersey, president and CEO of Corning and the Southern Finger Lakes, and as executive director of the New Jersey Division of Travel and Tourism. The Skagit Tourism Bureau was formed to meet the tourism marketing needs of Skagit County, and is a collaborative effort among the lodging businesses, municipalities, chambers of commerce and the Economic Development Alliance of Skagit County (EDASC) to create a strategic destination marketing organization to promote tourism to Skagit County. The EDASC will be fostering the Skagit Tourism Bureau, serving as its fiscal agent and performing other organizational duties.
