​WHLA has honored hotelier Jay Schumerth, Hostmark Hospitality Group with the Corporate Champion of the Year award. The Corporate Champion of the Year Award recognizes a key management individual who owns or operates lodging properties in Wisconsin for their high level of achievements. The award was presented during  dinner at the 2022 Wisconsin Lodging Conference & Trade Show on November 7 at The Osthoff Resort.
Jay Schumerth is the Vice President of Operations at Hostmark Hospitality Group. In his role, Jay provides multi-property oversight of Hostmark Hospitality Group's diverse property portfolio, including the Delta Hotel Milwaukee Northwest in Wisconsin. An award winning hotelier, Jay was awarded Hostmark Hospitality Group’s corporate pinnacle award called the Chairman’s Award in 2020.

An active member of WHLA for the last five years, Jay currently serves as the Vice Chair of WHLA’s Board of Directors. Prior to this role, he served as treasurer of WHLA for 2 years during the most challenging time the industry and organization has ever seen. During his time with WHLA, Jay has served on numerous committees and is currently engaged with the Legislative Committee as well as the Room Task Force. His commitment to the association is obvious to many, as he can regularly be seen attending WHLA conferences and our annual Action Day in Madison.
