During my term <br /> on the Commission we facilitated the development of the Tryon International Equestrian Center- <br /> a $100 million+ development by private investors. In 2018 the World Equestrian Games will be <br /> held at this facility attracting an expected 100,000+visitors in a two week period. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I believe every citizen has an obligation to support his community. Further, Orange County, like <br /> my former NC County, has a very interesting and unique history. I believe my previous <br /> experience, serving on the Polk County ETDC, gives me some familiarity with the issues that <br /> might be facing the Chapel Hill/Orange County Visitors Bureau. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br /> Boards/Commissions appointments: <br /> Other Comments: <br />
