Steve Head Quotations

Last year's conference focused on the relationships and impact between the local, regional, state and national economies. Speakers focused on how south Montgomery County and The Woodlands areas are impacted by events beyond the immediate region. Attendees learned how changing demographics in the state and region should be a critical piece of future planning and vision.

We would like to have it open no later than 2008. We will not make any changes until the new facility opens.

As Thomas Friedman points out in his bestseller 'The World is Flat,' broad changes in global education, technology, world economies and markets and communication have made the world's citizens more dependent on each other than any other time in history. The south Montgomery County area similarly is impacted by what occurs around the world.

It's tough not to be able to play a home game or practice outside, but we're staying focused. It's a setback, but it's something we can't control, so we're just trying to maintain our focus and be ready for when we do play.

The conference will begin with an overview of national issues from Representative Kevin Brady and will be followed by an array of speakers focusing on local and regional issues. The keynote speaker for the luncheon will be Governor Rick Perry.
