EDIN USVI Next Workshop Scheduled for September 15-16th - UVI STX

As the efforts to reduce petroleum-based energy consumption in the USVI continue to move forward, the increased involvement of the local citizens, businesses and organizations is increasingly important.  We hope you will consider taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the upcoming Workshop.  Please, post any topics that you would like to see addressed and we will do our best to include them.  The final agenda and issues to be discussed will be posted here and on the Facebook page when received.

Lodging Option for April 7th and 8th Workshop

I wanted to make you aware that the Emerald Beach Resort (http://www.emeraldbeach.com/) has offered EDIN Workshop attendees a discounted rate.  The core Workshop is scheduled for April 7^th and 8^th with some additional events being discussed before, during and after the main event.  If you will be traveling to STT and need to book a room, please consider staying at the Emerald Beach Resort; they have implemented many green practices, their proximity to the Workshop is ideal for reducing environmental impact, and depending on how many reservations are received they are trying to facilitate transportation to the event.  The resort is near shopping, restaurants, and the airport. (Also, it is a very nice place to stay with a beautiful beach)

If you are already on-island and have associates or business contacts that intend on attending, please forward this e-mail to them.

The reduced rate is:

We could offer you $169 + 18% or just under $200. $199.42

This is compared to a usual $219 base rate.  If you plan on traveling to STT, please let me know as well; I am trying to tally how many rooms will be booked for some other potential hotel benefits.

Thank you for considering this option.
