GreenNC: Building For a Sustainable Future Thursday, September 4, 2008 Raleigh, NC
The NC Triangle Chapter of the US Green Building Council is pleased to announce the 4th Annual GreenNC Tradeshow. This one day event featuring over 60 exhibitors from across North Carolina will offer anyone in the commercial building industry an excellent opportunity to gather information about sustainable products and practices in NC, learn about recent industry advances, and network with others interested in greening commercial buildings. Sustainable building, also known as green building or high performance building, strives to reduce the natural resources used in the construction and operation of building. This includes energy efficiency measures, thoughtful design, use of healthy building materials, water use conservation, and much more.

A big thank you goes to all of the sponsors, players and event volunteers who collectively made this golf tournament the best one yet!
