Lexington, Ky – Pam Inman, CTP, president of the National Tour Association, has been appointed by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross to a two-year term on the U.S. Travel & Tourism Advisory Board.  In this role, Inman will work closely with fellow board members to develop recommendations on strengthening the competitiveness of the U.S. travel and tourism industry.
