Description:  Please join us for a fun evening to determine the presentation topics for the 2012 Guild Calendar Year. We encourage everyone to be involved in helping shape the topics for all of the South Bay Guild Meetings.

What:  Together we will brainstorm and vote on topics at this meeting.  Help us keep the South Bay Guild on the forefront of green building education by attending and sharing what you want to learn about!

Who Should Attend
Alll green building professional community members are invited (green building professionals, suppliers, real estate professionals, public agency representatives etc.) to play a larger role in the planning and organization of the Guild presentations, so please forward this invitation to your colleagues as well.

What To Do
Start thinking about the topics you would like to learn more about and/or offer next year. Plan on attending the October Planning Party for the Guild that you primarily attend so that we can better offer the topics you want to learn about in 2012.

In addition to providing your input, you can also help coordinate the Guild presentations, if you want to be more involved. Folks can volunteer to form ‘Presentation Teams’, which are responsible for organizing the actual Guild presentation (contacting speakers, determining content and direction, providing handouts etc.).  Presentation Team members will receive free admission to the Guild meeting as well as promotion on Build It Green’s website and on our Guild announcements.

 

• Please fill out our SURVEY to give us your feedback; propose a topic or indicate if you'd like to be on a presentation team.
• If you want to be a presenter, please submit your TOPIC PROPOSAL before the Guild Planning Party.
