Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We are hoping that people will be interested in reading more about Minnesota history and learning more about the New Ulm area.

We have a lot of seniors in our community who have a hard time getting out and about if someone else is not driving. Those people who come on this trip will have a great time seeing a part of Minnesota that is very unique and visiting places most of them have probably not been before. A great look at some of Minnesota's history.  Anecdotal responses will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

As everyone got off the bus I heard many comments about how wonderful the trip had been and how they were so pleased that they could attend. Several people mentioned they looked forward to other bus trips in the future. I heard no bad comments about the trip at all and everyone seemed very happy that the entire trip went off without a hitch.
