Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We would like to see summer attendance increase by 15% compared to 2016. We would also like to see our survey results for performance quality increase from 50% rated Excellent to 65% Excellent. We count audience members at every performance and will continue to do so in 2017. We will also expand our use of the audience feedback survey by having the web address for the survey printed on all event flyers.

Measurable Outcome(s)

2017 attendance totaled 7095 people, a 20% decrease for the overall summer series. We are disappointed to report that a large part of this decrease was for the Global Adventures Series events. Even considering some very bad weather days, this is a large decrease compared to increasing numbers every summer since the series started.
