Tuscola Chamber & Tourism

Tuscola Chamber and Tourism initiatives are managed out of the Douglas County Economic Development (DCEDC) office at Tuscola City Hall.   Brian Moody is the Director of DCEDC and Stepheny McMahon serves as the Assistant Director.    Stepheny will assist Brian with economic development tasks while taking the lead on Tuscola Chamber and tourism promotion activities.

Chamber & Tourism membership will add exposure to business marketing efforts via various media types, cooperative ad-purchases and shop local campaigns. Tourism ads will be placed in targeted markets after which data on ad success will be collected and analyzed. Visitor movement will be tracked using Zartico software through our partner organization Experience CU. All efforts will be made to purchase media that will result in the biggest impact for Tuscola businesses. Membership in Tuscola Chamber & Tourism will provide benefits beyond the cost of the investment.
