CANCELED: Building Healthy and Sustainable Communities Conference, set for June 2-3

CONFERENCE CANCELED

Building Healthy and Sustainable Communities, a conference sponsored jointly by the Mountain Area Health Education Center and the Environmental Leadership Center at Warren Wilson College, has been cancelled owing to inadequate advance registration. The conference was scheduled to take place June 2 and 3, and was previewed in the Wednesday, May 25 edition of Xpress.

Advance registration was not sufficient to mount the event, but organizers say the spirit of Mountain Green and the need for building healthy and sustainable communities are still strong.  Stay tuned for future events and conferences.

Before you comment

The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.

  1. Cosmic Ballroom

    Leads to the question has the craze for sustainable green peaked in this economy?

  2. How does it lead to that question? It could lead to “Why was the publicity for this event so minimal?” or “Does your chewing gum loose it’s flavor on the bedpost overnight?”
