            by &lt;em&gt;Golfweek Magazine&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/center&gt;
            &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;
            &lt;br&gt;
            Nestled deep in the heart of the lush splendor of historic Williamsburg and bordered by the James River&#8217;s tranquil blue waters is where you&#8217;ll find the famous championship River Course at Kingsmill Resort. For more than a quarter of a century, the fairways and greens of this Anheuser-Busch jewel have challenged a who&#8217;s who of PGA and LPGA champions past and present. &lt;br&gt;
            &lt;br&gt;
            The River Course recently underwent a design renaissance as part of a multi-million dollar renovation overseen by original course architect, Pete Dye. And the final result is pure perfection. A look that&#8217;s timeless. Flawless conditions. And a range of holes for all skill levels. Resulting in a course you&#8217;ll move to the top of your must-play list. &lt;/div&gt;
            &lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
            &lt;!-- The River Course served as a popular PGA Tour site for 22 years and is currently home to the LPGA Tour&#8217;s Michelob ULTRA Open. Television viewers are familiar with the course&#8217;s signature 17th hole &#8211; a par 3 hole perched on the edge of the James River. In 2004, original architect Pete Dye returned to Kingsmill to oversee changes to the River Course layout and green complexes. The renovation included the addition of tees from which golfers of all abilities can enjoy, redesigned fairway bunkering on several holes presents new and exciting challenges, and resurfaced greens allow for faster and smoother putting on the recontoured surfaces. 
				&lt;BR&gt;&lt;br&gt;Born in 1925 in Urbana, Ohio and hailed as the father of modern golf course architecture, Mr. Dye earned his Doctoral of Landscape Architecture from Purdue University. Mr. Dye has served a President of the prestigious American Society of Golf Course Architect&#8217;s and is an honored recipient of the ASGCA&#8217;s Donald Ross Award, and the Golf Course Superintendents Associat				ion&#8217;s Old Tom Morris Award. Inspired early on in his career by a tour of the great course of Scotland, Mr. Dye&#8217;s work in the United States includes an outpouring of challenging and exceptional golf course designs. The River Course is among his most noted and memorable.

			<title>Charlottesville Business Innovation Council (CBIC) and Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce Announce Innovative Affiliation</title>
			<description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA&quot;&gt;The Charlottesville Business Innovation Council (CBIC) and the Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce (the Chamber) today announced that their respective organizations have signed an agreement to jointly support the entrepreneurial and high-tech business community in an innovative affiliation. Chiefly, this agreement provides for the following advantages: &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
* CBIC will retain its independent, separate organizational status with independent governance in affiliated membership with, and under operational management by the Chamber; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
* CBIC member companies with 10 or fewer employees in good standing will become CBIC Chamber Affiliate Members receiving access to Chamber member benefits; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
* All Chamber member enterprises in good standing will have equal access to all CBIC events, activities and member services on a member basis; and, &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
* The Chamber will provide operational management and administrative support to CBIC on a fee-for- service basis, enabling CBIC to transition more easily to an all-volunteer directed organization. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In this slowing economy, CBIC has converted its organizational model from that of a volunteer-led, staff- run group to a solely volunteer-led and run group. The Chamber offers established organizational strength and is well-equipped in a wide range of needed ongoing administrative capacities - from sound accounting, event management and communications to everyday items such as registration and invoicing. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&quot;The Chamber's offer to assist CBIC by assuming these functions on a fee-for-service basis was both timely and very well received,&quot; said Gary F. Henry, CBIC Acting Chairman who serves on the Board of Directors for both organizations. &quot;I feel strongly that this affiliation brings greater value to both organizations and to individual CBIC and Chamber members. We are pleased that the Chamber is bringing its demonstrated strength to encourage and enhance our community's critical stake in developing a more diverse technology-based economy,&quot; he continued. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&quot;Our Chamber believes that this new affiliation with the Charlottesville Business Innovation Council represents both an opportunity and a responsibility to our Chamber,&quot; added Timothy Hulbert, Chamber President. &quot;Our Chamber will work at providing the Council and its member enterprises a full range of services in helping to build an even more vital overall business environment and business community.&quot; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Additional benefits of this collaborative affiliation include cross-promotion of Chamber and CBIC events to each organization's respective members, and closer collaboration of scheduling events while mutually respecting the independence of both groups. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
About the Charlottesville Business Innovation Council (CBIC): &lt;br&gt;
The Charlottesville Business Innovation Council is the preeminent private-sector advocate and catalyst for entrepreneurship and technology-based economic development in our Greater Charlottesville region. Formerly known as the Virginia Piedmont Technology Council + Charlottesville Venture Group (VPTC+CVG), our new name and identity became official on October 2, 2007. CBIC serves its members by providing advocacy, educational programming, and by bringing people together through our network of members and contacts.
