Description
If your town population is a few thousand people, or maybe a few hundred, what can you do to improve your community? Small towns are where community development and economic development intersect to create an exceptional quality of life, but you have to start with a big idea. This session will explore economic vitality, design, and promotion projects and initiatives that are helping small towns spur development, attract visitors, and get the recognition that they deserve!
