			<h3 class="meeting_subtitle">City Profile</h3>
            
            
            <span id="PrintArea"><p align="justify"> Known as the "Valley of the Sun," Phoenix and its adjacent 
              suburbs benefit from abundant sunshine and warm weather throughout 
              most of the year. Phoenix is the fifth largest city in the nation, 
              with a population of nearly 1.4 million, and plays host to more 
              than 13 million visitors per year. What is commonly perceived as 
              Phoenix is really a vast urban sprawl that covers more area than 
              Los Angeles. The Greater Phoenix area, which covers an area of 2,000 
              square miles and includes 22 additional cities, notably Scottsdale, 
              Mesa and Tempe, has a population of close to 3.5 million.</p>
              
              
            <p align="justify">Phoenix's history is steeped in Native American tradition, and 
              is home to 23 reservations. The pioneer spirit of the West is reflected 
              in ruins and replicas throughout the city. Arizona's capital shares 
              a distinction with Las Vegas of being the fastest growing city in 
              the country owing much to its favorable climate and rich heritage.</p></span>
