About CommunityMatters '10
It’s 2010. Your community has never faced more pressing issues, and it
has never had a better opportunity to solve them. Whether you’re
struggling with empty storefronts, changing demographics, or the loss
of local character, your challenges matter. Whether you have years of
experience or you’re just starting out, your ideas matter. And whether
you’re working in a mountain town in the Rockies, a booming suburb in
the heartland, or a rural village in the Northeast, your community
matters.
Why Come to CommunityMatters'10®?
CommunityMatters ’10 is a unique innovation-action experience—a
coalition of leaders, thinkers and doers committed to building strong,
vibrant communities from the ground up. Mind-expanding speakers, a
multidisciplinary approach and the opportunity to build lasting
connections make CommunityMatters’10 invaluable to your life and work.
Come prepared for four days of fresh perspectives, instructive
discussions, hands-on experiences, and novel solutions to the
challenges facing small cities and towns across America. At the end,
you’ll leave with dozens of new ideas and tools, a better sense of
where the world (and your town) is headed, a new network of
relationships and lasting inspiration to help you create a stronger
community and a better world.
