Never has <br />the oppommity been so great to learn from one another as gow <br />eming and leading our communities changes. Take the time to <br />attend general sessions and workshops which will give you a <br />chance to take new ideas back to your cities and see some of the <br />programs San Antonio has successfully implemented in the area <br />of Economic Development and Community Policing. <br /> <br /> This year's theme is "Celebrating Cities, Creating <br />Communities." Cities are implementing successful, innovative <br />programs everyday. Stop by and see some award-winning pro- <br />grams in the "Good Neighbors, Great Cities" Showcase. <br /> <br /> During these challenging times when we are faced with <br />tough decisions everyday, we should celebrate our leadership, <br />our programs, and the strength of our cities. At the Congress of <br />Cities, you'll have a chance to learn about innovative solutions, <br />share ideas, and increase your skills as a local leader. It's a <br />worthwhile investment for you and your city. <br /> <br />I look forward to seeing you in San Antonio in December. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Gregory S.
