Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Increase the awareness of symphonic music by increasing our audience and volunteers for project. Audiences will increase by 15% from 2017. Five new volunteers will be recruited to assist with the event production. Attendance will be measured by headcount at the performances. These figures will be entered into a spreadsheet of concert attendance since the initial Lakes Area Music Festival season in 2019 to view attendance trends and determine growth. Volunteers will be recruited at events throughout the summer and entered into the organization's database to be tracked throughout the season.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Successful orchestral event with increase participation from previous year. Vast Majority of participants indicating a positive experience.
