Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, our board members will have greater understanding of the financial and business aspects of running a non-profit organization in a more professional manner. Evaluation will occur through follow-up meetings with subcommittees, interviews with people who are experienced with marketing and budgeting, and by creating a case study regarding facilities in the local area.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We had 76 performers, and an estimated 4500+ audience members. We saw performers respond very positively to our online coaching and an increase in adult performers from previous seasons.
