Measurable Outcome(s)

Since this is the very first step in a much larger endeavor, it's difficult to measure progress in the long term, however, the plan set forth by Museology has certainly made it clear to MCHS staff and Board of Directors the importance of knowing our audience and learning to accommodate them in a way that allows them to better learn the history of McLeod County and the surrounding region.
