April 23, 2003 Mr. Hubert "Petey" Green President Prince George's Black Chamber of Commerce 6009 Oxon Hill Road, Suite 206 Oxon Hill, MD 20745   Dear Mr. Green:   With great enthusiasm, I support the concept of an annual Prince George's Classic. I applaud you and the Prince George's Black Chamber of Commerce for demonstrating continued leadership and vision, key elements in the success of the County's economic development strategy.   As a proud graduate of a Historically Black College and University (HBCU), a week of golf tournaments, concerts, fashion shows and parades culminating in a nationally televised football game between HBCUs is extremely exciting. Moreover, as County Executive, the decision to invest in this event is steeped in it's potential to yield tremendous returns for local, small and minority businesses. With a projected $15 million economic impact, the Prince George's Classic is bursting with opportunity for may years to come.   I am personally aware of the Chamber's excellent reputation as an extraordinary force in the County. By promoting business prosperity, enriching the community through mentoring, education and training programs, and generating development opportunities, your organization has helped to create a business environment where companies can flourish. I have no doubt that the Prince George's Classic will not only be a huge success, but grow exponentially with each passing year.   Therefore, on behalf of over 800,000 citizens living in Prince George's County, I commend you on your dedication and outstanding commitment to the progress of this County. Furthermore, I am pleased to show my support for the Prince George's Classic by working with you to make this event a complete success.   Sincerely yours,   Jack B. Johnson County Executive
