Measurable Outcome(s)

The short-term measurable goal was achieved. We received 4 letters of review that placed their stamp of approval on the script.
The intermediate Term goal is closer to being achieved. Now that we have a written script, we can begin looking for funding sources and vendors for the fabrication and installation of components.
The Long Term goal has not been achieved. This step will occur after the installation of the components has occurred. At that time, we will implement a survey. We will continue to track admissions and tours compared to previous years.
