about br lodging
The Baton Rouge Lodging Association, formerly the Baton Rouge Area Hospitality
Management Association, was chartered in 1955 as the first group of hotel
managers, who organized primarily to discuss issues dealing with legislation
and the promotion of the quickly expanding hospitality industry. In 2003, the
BRHMA hired an association management firm to further its mission, to develop
the industry and its employees, and to foster collaborative partnerships with
allied industries. Additionally, in 2006 the Baton Rouge Hospitality Sales
Association merged with the BRHMA to strengthen the industry. Recently renamed
to align with similar industry associations, the Baton Rouge Lodging
Association (BRLA) continues its mission to create a unified hospitality
industry through business partnerships, collaboration, continuing education,
and networking. The Baton Rouge Lodging Association is a 501c6 organization and is is governed by a volunteer board of directors and continues to be managed by its association management firm.
