One of the most exciting activities of USGBC National Capital Region's annual A Midsummer Night's Green celebration is the selection of our People's Choice Award winner. While other project award recipients are selected before the event by a select panel of local green building experts, our People's Choice Award winner is decided live at the event by attendee vote. Can there be a greater honor than being voted the best of the best in green building by a crowd of the most informed and influential sustainability professionals in the DC region?
Nominee project teams provide a poster outlining their project's sustainability features and accomplishments, which will be on display during the networking portion of the event. Attendees vote during the reception, and the winner is announced at the close of the evening.
This year's A Midsummer Night's Green celebration will take place on July 21 at the Arena Stage in The Wharf DC. Register now, and join us on July 21 to have your vote counted!
