Keep Prince William Beautiful (KPWB) and the Prince William Chamber of Commerce have partnered to host a luncheon called “Keep Prince William Beautiful: How to Save the Environment (And Money, Too)”.
The luncheon will take place on January 10 at 11:30 a.m. at the Old Hickory Golf Club in Woodbridge.
During the lunchen, James Hunt – an internationally known author and local government expert – will speak to attendees.
More on Hunt, from a release:
James C. Hunt is the author of Bottom Line Green: How America’s Cities are Saving the Environment (and Money, Too) and the newly released The Amazing City: Seven Steps to an Amazing City, in which Mr. Hunt identifies Green Awareness as a critical step to high performing local governments. Mr. Hunt is a past president of the National League of Cities, where he became known for creating the National Partnership for Inclusive Communities. Mr. Hunt has also been named Municipal Leader of the Year by American City and County Magazine. Currently, Mr. Hunt serves as CEO of Amazing Cities, a speaking and consulting company dedicated to excellence in local government.
“We are delighted to welcome Jim Hunt to Prince William County to discuss ways we can all help sustain and protect our environment and grow the economy. It goes to the heart of what we are about – keeping Prince William Beautiful not just for the sake of keeping it beautiful, but so our residents can do beautiful things. When the park is clean, kids are more likely to go. We know home values, for instance, can be up to 7% more in neighborhoods free of litter. Environmental action and economic growth are not mutually exclusive goals,” stated KPWB’s Executive Director Jason Parsons in a release.
Table sponsorships and exhibition booths are available as well as individual tickets for Chamber members and the general public.
