Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce has a new vice president.

Carol Dempsey has joined the executive of the business representative organisation which had its end-of-year meeting in the Killarney Park Hotel on Wednesday.
Carol will work closely with president Johnny McGuire on several projects over the next 12 months.
A native of Dungarvan, Co Waterford, she has lived and worked in Killarney for the past 35 years and she owns and operates the Children’s House Montessori Schools in Killarney and Milltown.
She works alongside her daughter, Róisín, who returned after some time in Canada to work in the business.
Carol has represented the Montessori community at an executive level both nationally and internationally.
A long-time member of Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce, she was very involved in the early days of the Christmas in Killarney Festival and she is also a member of the organising committee of the hugely successful Wander Wild Festival.
Carol said she is really looking forward to working with the team at Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce which has a very dynamic and can-do attitude.
“Killarney gives us so much in terms of vibrancy and vitality and I am looking forward to giving something back and playing a greater role going forward,” she said.
