The county said the event will bring hundreds of stakeholders together to honor America’s 250th anniversary and to highlight recent projects that will support the region’s future growth. The event includes networking opportunities and an expo of businesses and services.
“There is a rich history in the Riverside County area, dating back before our country was born,” said Board Chair Karen Spiegel, Second District Supervisor. “As we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, we honor the milestones that made our current communities possible, while also sharing the investments we’ve made that will strengthen our future.”
