The Committee of 100’s Creative Cities event on “Fostering a More Entrepreneurial Region” was supported by more than 300 business and elected leaders from Limestone, Madison and Morgan counties.  Investment came from sponsor and individual donations in addition to ticket sales.
Proceeds from the Oct. 18 event will go to the Committee of 100’s Creative Cities Fund to create a culture of innovation in economic development and public education. The Creative Cities Fund is the philanthropic arm of the Committee of 100.
Thanks to the Creative Cities Committee for leading this very successful effort.  Chair is Lee Hoekenschnieder and members are Linda Akenhead, Joe Alexander, Greg Brown, Candy Burnett, Leah Gradl, Ron Klein, Jason Landers, Al Patterson, Craig Paulus, Rick Tucker, Lynne Vallely, and Charlie Wilson.
