Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

95 percent of the participants will indicate their ability to express themselves creatively was enhanced and 95 percent of audiences will report enjoyment of the performances. One to five new members may join the choir due to reduced or waived membership fees. We will evaluate through post-performance feedback, audience and participation counts, survey responses, counts of new members, and survey of choir members.

Measurable Outcome(s)

140 people saw free holiday concerts. 23 members used reduced member fees. Choir created 50 large-print songbooks and digital recordings for twenty songs. ?Every year, the Northside Singers surpass expectations. They are so wonderful and always give a stunning performance. We enjoy the mixture and variety of works with traditional and some more global pieces. We also enjoy the sing-along."
