This event is being presented as the second of a three-part series highlighting regional economic issues. Three Whatcom County-based nonpartisan forums are coordinating their Winter/Spring 2010 programs to  provide community members an opportunity to build new knowledge about Whatcom County’s economic vitality and what you can do about it. City Club of Bellingham, League of Women Voters, and Leadership Whatcom are cross-promoting events to encourage citizens to deepen their understanding about tough community issues, and build skills to keep public issues discussions productive. Attend one or attend all. Check each group’s website to confirm time, date, location.
