Dear
Colleagues in Green Building,
Thank you
also for being a dedicated Member of the USGBC MA Chapter. As I went through
this list, I am amazed at all the great LEED projects I can connect to a name.
I want more of these projects to be better known.
Your
work has helped move the Commonwealth to the forefront of sustainable planning,
design, construction and operation of buildings and communities. We want to
celebrate your efforts, and those of your teams, by having your LEED certified
projects showcased at an exciting event to be hosted at Google’s facility in
Cambridge on Oct. 17th, 2013.
The
USGBC MA Chapter is hosting this inaugural LEED Project Showcase as a way of
gathering our community of practitioners, raising the profile of our LEED
buildings, and sharing information about innovative practices in design and
construction.
I hope
you will consider joining us. There are many ways to participate. We are
seeking basic information about each of your projects so
we can highlight these stories on our website and create opportunities for team
building among the many disciplines involved in projects. We want the story of
these projects whether located in Massachusetts or designed/created by you or
your firm outside of the state. There are also several sponsorship opportunities to allow for
better exposure, including event boards and tie-ins with our media partner, the
New England Real Estate Journal. We are also seeking sponsors that want to
present information about their projects live at the event. If you would like
to sponsor multiple projects that you've been involved in, please let me know.
We
anticipate an enjoyable and informative gathering and hope that you and members
of your project team will submit your projects' narratives and attend the
event.
I'm
hoping this may be a way to connect with more of the people who have supported
our mission to make every building a green building, through your daily
work.
Thank
you for your efforts in promoting the design, construction, and operation of
sustainable buildings and communities in Massachusetts! I look forward to
hearing from you.
Grey
