Jul. 26--BRADENTON -- Tom Jung, general manager of Bradenton's Holiday Inn Riverfront, has been appointed to the Tourist Development Council.
Jung listed professional certifications as a hotel administrator and memberships in the Rotary Club and Chamber of Commerce on his application for the unpaid post.
He replaces Joe Pickett, who is still head of the sports commission, but resigned from the council because of expanded work responsibilities, said Larry White, executive director of the Bradenton Area Convention & Visitors Bureau.
Jung's filling a term that will expire in 2009 and he's eligible to run for another four-year term, White said.
The council recommends to the county commission how tourist tax dollars should be spent, White said.
Other members of the council include Manatee County Commissioner Joe McClash, Holmes Beach City Commission Chairman Sandy Haas Martens, Bradenton City Council member Marianne Barnebey, Ed Chiles, Kent Davis, Barbara Rodocker, Sean Murphy and David Teitelbaum.
