The St. Louis Regional Chamber & Growth Association (RCGA) is offering a unique "FAM trip" to China September 19th - 27th, 2010, and inviting its members and their families and colleagues to join them on this special opportunity to experience China. The "Gateway of Discovery to China" has limited seats available for this trip at a very affordable package price, and it will sell out quickly.
This 9-day trip will be a wonderful opportunity to experience China first hand, as the RCGA and our Midwest-China Hub Commission partners continue to work on the "Big Idea" Project to establish the bistate St. Louis region as the Midwestern Commercial Hub for China. The special package price for the China Trip should enable many of our RCGA members and civic colleagues to join us.
