Reason:
I was fortunate enough to visit the Blackstone and have a personal tour from Bob Billington himself. The visit was incredibly educational, inspiring and memorable. The work that he is doing to lead his entire community to be engaged, take action and commit to sustainable development is incredible. I think he could win the grand prize as well as the Rhode Island prize!
