A Green Conference
The Local Government Commission and conference partners have stepped up our commitment this year to ensure that the conference is a "greener"event. We are producing fewer printed materials, and instead posting and distributing more information electronically. It is for this reason that we are directing you to the conference web site to obtain a registration form. We are working with the hotel to ensure on-site recycling is available, and only reusable utensils, napkins and tablecloths are used. We are also working with some of our project partners and DC-area food co-ops to try to include locally grown food in the conference menu. For more details about these and other efforts underway to make this event greener will be posted shortly!
