The CEO Roundtable, a group of 37 community, business and labor leaders, is committed to quality of life improvements and business opportunities in the Greater Peoria region. At a Sept. 2, 2008, event, the group launched the Build The Block campaign—a plan that includes both verbal support and a commitment to raise $8 million in private funds for the Peoria Riverfront Museum. To date, $1.8 million has been committed.

“Without question, The Block is our greatest opportunity to elevate the educational, cultural, social and economic landscape for our friends and neighbors of all ages,” said CEO Roundtable Chairman Michael Bryant. “We’re talking about a project that will define Peoria for generations to come.”
