Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The Finnish performer will spend some of his time strolling the park, so we guestimate viewership at 2000-3000 people. "Doc" Thronson's band will probably draw about 500 guests. We will have a director present to get an approximate count of attendees. (These events are free to the public and in the center of our park so guests will come and go.) We usually see about 200 guests watching the forging demonstration.
