2011 Speaker Series Announced
Danville Regional Foundation and the Danville Pittsylvania County Chamber of Commerce Announce the 2011-2012 Speaker Series
Danville, VA - July 22, 2011. Danville Regional Foundation (DRF) and the Danville Pittsylvania County Chamber of Commerce (DPCCC) are excited to announce the presenters for its 2011-2012 Speaker Series.
DRF began the Speaker Series in 2009 by bringing innovative thinkers to the Dan River Region as part of DRF's endeavor to transform the regional economy and create a prosperous and healthy culture benefitting all of the region's citizens. A benefit of the Speaker Series has been the development of confidence within the many residents of the region. Attendees take the speakers' messages home with them and the spark grows, encouraging them in turn to create positive change.
DRF and the DPCCC are the Speaker Series sponsors; however, both organizations are still seeking additional community partners for each of the Speaker Series events.
Speakers include:
