Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Bells of the Lakes will perform four concerts at Senior Living Facilities to entertain 350 residents and provide enrichment to all participants. Ringers will have discussions with audience members. Feedback from our past concert series at senior living centers in 2017, in the words of one audience member ôyou don't know how much it means to us to be able to have this kind of music performed where we live.ö During our concerts, the director has an informal question and answer time with the audience. After the concerts, the ringers speak with members of the audience to receive their feedback. As performers we have post-performance surveys we submit to the board and discuss. During the concerts, the manager counts the audience and speaks with staff from the facility to learn how the program is enjoyed by their residents.
