GrowSmart Maine Summit 2012
GrowSmart Maine is excited to host Summit 2012 on Tuesday, October 23 at the Augusta Civic Center. We hope you will attend! We plan to fill the Augusta Civic Center with over 300 folks from across the state to inform, discuss and inspire towards improving Maine’s economy, revitalizing our downtowns and conserving our working and natural landscapes. And we’ll be sharing Charting Maine's Future - Making Headway, an update of the Brookings report Charting Maine’s Future, including a scorecard of accomplishments and needed next steps.This statewide Summit will bring together organizations, community leaders and engaged citizens to discuss what's happening today at the intersection of the environment, economy and community and to encourage work that builds towards prosperity for Maine's future.
We believe the topics, ideas and issues on the docket at Summit 2012 are of great relevance to you and your peers. Furthermore, innovation and collaboration are central to the Summit and we feel that the perspectives and experiences you bring to the table would greatly enrich the discussions. We are confident you'll come away with renewed energy and information of value for the work you do.
IMPORTANT INFO:
We are pleased to offer you the student rate and hope you'll agree the $25 registration fee is a smart investment given the value of attending the Summit. Register online at www.growsmartmaine.org/summit with the discount code of EDUCATION. Please bring your student ID or proof of enrollment with you to the Summit. Alternatively, we can offer free registration in exchange for a day of volunteering, which would still allow you to partake fully in the days events. We are specifically looking for 10-20 volunteers to act as room monitors or help out with registration. If you'd like to volunteer, contact Kim at 699.4452.
