Specifically, the donations received due to our fund-raising efforts will be a measurement of community support. We plan to fund the project donations totally 20% of the cost of the project. In addition, we plan to devise a survey to measure satisfaction of our audiences and members with the visual aspects of our recent renovations. This survey may incorporate other questions pertaining to our organization as well. The survey will give Prairie Wind Players a sense of what draws first time customers, and what is the incentive to return.
Our facility's useful life as a performing arts venue has been extended another 20-30 years.
