WMIG Kick-off Meeting Announcement
The AIA Seattle Committee On The Environment-COTE is excited to announce the initial What Makes it Green-WMIG 2012 kick-off meeting. In lieu of our monthly COTE meeting we will be congregating on NBBJ’s outside deck, on Wednesday, September 21, from 4-7pm. We will introduce our new WMIG 2012 co-chairs, Eric Anderson from CDI Engineers and Christopher Meek from the Integrated Design Lab. Other agenda items will include the following:
-Brief overview of WMIG 2010
-Review of WMIG’s mission statement and objectives
-Review of WMIG 2012 goals, schedule and committee structure
-Q and A
This is a good opportunity to get re-acquainted with COTE and consider joining the WMIG 2012 sub-committee. The committee will look forward to showcasing and furthering our region’s design leadership in the future of sustainability. We look forward to seeing some new and familiar faces next week. Refreshments and snacks will be provided!
