Lucy Fleming
Lucy Fleming’s co founding owner of The Lodge at Chaa Creek, began her term by implementing the membership’s mandate to challenge, in the Supreme Court, the Government of Belize’s approval for the development of a cruise ship port. The result marked the first time in Belize that an association won a judicial review of a government decision. During the rest of Lucy’s tenure, the BTIA’s membership increased by 40% with significant benefits to members as she helped organise the largest ever number of training opportunities in hospitality, marketing, culinary arts and loss prevention as well as the formation of district business watch centres.
