Have you reserved your spot to ensure that you don't miss out on WGBA's premiere event?    

 

"What event," you ask? The 2014 Transformation Awards Reception, of course!  

 

Mingle with the who's who of sustainability in Wisconsin, meet leaders in green building, and learn about exceptional sustainable and energy efficient projects. While you do it, drink a complimentary pint of Lakefront Brewery's Riverwest Stein or White Organic beer and get CEU's!

 

Now, I can sit here and tell you that this event is strategically designed to offer you superior networking opportunities, that it celebrates sustainability leaders, and that participating helps us raise valuable funds that will help us achieve our mission. This is all true and very important, but this event is so much more than that. We know that your time is valuable, and we wanted to find  a fun way to help you gain valuable connections, build relationships, earn CEUs, and support our local economy.

 

Please join us November 13th at the Oconomowoc Community Center for this Locavore event that demonstrates the beneficial impacts of sourcing local food and services. We are putting a name to the face of your food! From 5-6pm, you will get the opportunity to talk with WI farmers who are engaging in sustainable farm management practices, while enjoying our unique beer and cheese tasting! Want to learn more about the innovative farmers/local food producers that we will be featuring? Click here

 

That's correct! I am telling you that for a mere $55 registration fee you could:

  • Earn CEUs while enjoying a complimentary pint of beer
  • Show your support of WGBA's mission
  • Develop business connections with others dedicated to sustainability
  • Eat delicious locally sourced foods, and meet the people that produced them
  • Taste 8 of the offerings from one of the most sustainable breweries in the U.S.
  • Take home a complimentary GEOBIN® Compost Bin (supplies are limited)
  • Represent your organization and share stories of your successes

Don't miss this unique opportunity to have a great time. Registration closes Friday, October 17th, and space is limited.

 

I hope to see you there!
