The Slow Food Southeast Regional Leader's Meeting will be held on Sunday, February 24, 2013 from 9:30a-4:30p in Atlanta, Georgia at the Clarkston Community Center (3701 College Avenue, Clarkston, GA 30021).
Keynote Speakers include Paolo Croce, General Secretary, Slow Food International and Richard McCarthy, Incoming Executive Director of Slow Food USA. The meeting will be facilitated by Jovan Sage, Leadership Program Manager of Slow Food USA.
Many of the chapters in the southeastern United States are very actively involved in the food movement, and there is strength in numbers. The annual Southeast Regional Leader's Meeting is just around the corner and we are welcoming chapter leaders from the rest of the South to join us.
We hope to build a stronger sense of community amongst the southeastern US Slow Food chapters. During this daylong meeting we will be exploring ways to increase unity and strengthen the network. Ultimately, we want to take the work of the region to a deeper level of commitment, but we need involved members to help determine what that work should be.
This will be our first opportunity to begin building a stronger sense of community within the southeastern United States. Please pass this onto your membership as this meeting is open to Chapter leaders and member representatives.
Registration is now open on BrownPaperTickets.
