Show Creek Valley group honors St. Clair County tourism director Blair Good Game for fundraising and promotion
Summary
Members of the Show Creek Valley Improvement Association presented a plaque to St. Clair County tourism director Blair Good Game for her work as auctioneer at the association’s fundraiser; presenters credited her with helping double lodging tax receipts and promoting county tourism.
Members of the Show Creek Valley Improvement Association presented a plaque of appreciation to Blair Good Game, St. Clair County’s tourism director, during the commission meeting. Presenters highlighted Good Game’s role as the auctioneer at the association’s Christmas auction, which has raised about $15,000 over the past three years, and credited her for elevating county tourism and doubling the county lodging tax since her hiring.
A community member noted that artisan Jeff Ker (transcript reference) made a St. Clair County plaque used for the presentation. Good Game accepted the surprise recognition and encouraged attendance at the association’s annual auction, typically held the second Saturday in December.
Why it matters: The moment recognized volunteer and staff work that supports local fundraising and tourism promotion; commissioners noted the county helped pay for the Show Creek parking lot and described the facility as an important local venue.
Next steps: The association invited county residents to attend and support the auction, and the commission recorded its appreciation for the service, thanking volunteers who support the event.
