12 Community Contribution 12 Town of Vail | CSE | 12/15/11 Impact on Vail’s sense of community: From the moment our internationally and nationally renowned presenters, as well as our attendees (both local and out out-of-towners) arrived at the poolside reception at the Four Seasons, on a beautiful fall evening, the atmosphere was set for the next two and a half days. Our presenters arrived to hugs rather than handshakes, and the smiling never stopped. We provided what Vail provides. A passion for life, people, health, wellness, and the outdoors as both our classrooms and our backdrop. The pride of, and in, our local athletes, docs and researchers who were showcased throughout the event was wonderful. Our presenters came without hesitation--to Vail and to what we, as community members, envisioned for making a difference in the field of health and wellbeing.

13 Sustainability Efforts Green Measures 13 Town of Vail | CSE | 12/15/11 All events were held in the hotels and restaurants of Vail, and to the extent that they all engage in sustainability within the community, our green efforts were realized.
