Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra will provide engaging programming and enjoyable music, and determine if programming on New Year's Eve is a popular option for area music lovers, so we know if we should program on this date in the future. The Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra wants to attract an audience of 150-200 persons. Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra wants to take 5 professional quality photographs for future advertising. Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra will use audience survey to gage the success of engaging programming and enjoyable music. Audience count is done at every concert. Long Prairie Chamber Orchestra will view quality and count number of photographs received from Matthew Breitter.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Successful community orchestra concert which met expectation in terms of audience participation. Plan to enhance the annual event for the future.
