Innovations for the 2010 IML Annual Conference
The Illinois Municipal League is seeking submissions for the “Illinois Innovations and Showcase” to be held at the IML Annual Conference in Chicago on September 23-25, 2010. The showcase highlights “good things” that Illinois cities are doing and provides a resource base of innovative ideas that encourages peer sharing. The showcase is open to any Illinois municipality. The showcase is similar to a mini-exhibit hall.
Each participant will get an area of approximately 10’ X 10’ and includes a table, two chairs, display tripods and certain audio-video equipment (upon request). There is also a wall for displaying material as well. Sessions are held on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. Each session is two hours and thirty minutes. Communities interested in participating are asked to participate in only one session.
If your community has created a new program, expanded a current program, or just has a great idea and wants to share it, the IML encourages your community to participate in this program. Participants will have an opportunity to win the Illinois Communities’ Best Innovation Award. The winning communities will be announced at the Saturday Luncheon and a plaque will be presented at a later date in that community.
If you are interested in participating in this year’s showcase, please complete the 2010 IML Annual Conference Innovations and Showcase registration form and return to Joe Schatteman at the Illinois Municipal League by fax (217) 525-7438 or by mail at the following address:
