Symposium on Small Towns
This appeared in my inbox today, courtesy of Minnesota Rural Partners, and I thought it might be of interest to those of you who are focusing on sustainability issues and/or business development in your communities:
6th Annual Symposium on Small Towns - “The Power of Small: Building Solutions for Energy Self-Reliance” will be held June 3 – 4 in Morris. There are many self-reliant approaches to small-scale food, fuel, and power systems for schools and local governments. This years Symposium will focus on social, economic, environmental, and political factors that surround the building of these systems.
Representatives from P-12 schools, higher education, and local units of government are the primary audience for this Symposium. Sign up now for early registration at www.centerforsmalltowns.org or call (320) 589-6451.
