The Lake Lanier Association recently named a new executive director following the departure of Amy McGuire several weeks ago.
According to a newsletter from the organization, Victoria Clevenger was named Executive Director in November 2023.
Clevenger first joined the staff of the LLA in February 2021 as membership and communications coordinator.
"Over the past three years, she has spearheaded internal communications to LLA members through the quarterly newsletter, social media, email marketing and website updates," the newsletter reads. "She has had direct interactions with volunteers working on our signature events – the Annual Member Celebration and Shore Sweep."
Clevenger earned her MBA and undergraduate degree from Lee University in Cleveland, TN. She is an Ohio native and spent many years in Tennessee before relocating to Georgia. She came to the LLA with over five years of sales and marketing experience for a higher-ed non-profit in Tennessee.
"She brings to the LLA team a creative eye, excellent project management skills and a passion for building strong relationships," the newsletter reads.
"It is a great honor and privilege to step into the role of Executive Director," Clevenger said in a statement. "Over the past 3 years, I’ve come
to deeply love this community and the warmth it’s shown me since day one. As you may have noticed from my bio, Georgia hasn’t always been my home. However, now that it is, I’m so pleased to have the Lake Lanier area as my backyard. It’s always an exciting topic to discuss with friends and family who live out of state. For me, Lake Lanier is the source of so many fond memories with friends, it’s the place I bring out-of-town guests - as they never fully grasp its size until they see Lanier with their own eyes. The lake, much like it is for so many of you, has quickly become my happy place."
