A Letter to RSC06 Attendees

Thank you to all our presenters, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors, and guests for being a part of Rethinking Sustainable Construction 2006 (RSC06)!  RSC06 was a unique event and a fantastic opportunity for discussion and innovation.  We hope you have all returned home safely and invigorated for further debate and action.

RSC06 was held September 19-22, 2006 at The Ritz-Carlton in Sarasota, Florida. Sarasota County has been recognized for their progressive approach to incorporating sustainability within local govenment, and was an excellent location for such an event. We thank Sarasota County and The Ritz-Carlton for their support and their hospitality throughout the conference.

Please check your inboxes for a brief questionnaire regarding your experiences at the conference.  Additionally, stay tuned for information regarding the post-conference proceedings.

Best wishes in your other endeavors!

Sincerely,

The Conference Organizers
