San Andreas, CA....The CCEDC has a guest speaker at the Wednesday, December 11, 2013, 2:00pm meeting of the Calaveras County Economic Development Company, (CCEDC). The meeting will be in the classrooms of Mark Twain Medical Center. The speaker is John MacWillie. He lived in Calaveras County during his youth, graduating from Calaveras High School.

The three basic issues are:

If time and group interest allow these ancillary topics will be addressed: the role of local entrepreneurs, availability of capital, and quality of local education.
