Gina keough
manager-Santa maria valley chamber of commerce vcb

Gina Keough has worked for the Santa Maria Valley Chamber of Commerce and  Visitor & Convention Bureau since 1999.  She has held all three positions within the VCB and has been manager since 2005.  Currently Gina serves as Secretary for the SMV Wine Country Association and is thrilled to have this great partnership in promoting the wines of Santa Maria Valley!!!  She is learning so much about the technical side of the winemaking business that is sure to enhance the promotion of our local wines which so heavily a part of our job as a VCB.

That's just what she does for a living...  Gina's other love is music. She has been playing the guitar since third grade and has been singing publicly since she was 16.  A bass player out of necessity, beginning in high school bands, she currently plays with three bands here on the Central Coast and loves every minute of it. Music has taken her throughout California, but also to many places in Alaska, Wyoming and Nevada.  

Volunteering for different organizations is very important to Gina and currently her efforts are focused on the Wine Country Association, The Central Coast Tourism Council, First Christian Church Third Service music ministry, and being a Cuddler volunteer in the nursery at Marian Medical Center.
