Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
At this program we expect that children and their guardians will learn more about Minnesota's wildlife and how to recognize their tracks when they are out discovering nature.
Measurable Outcome(s)
This was the most highly attended library event ever. It was very popular and brought several families who commented that they had not been to the library prior to this event. Children and parents had many positive comments and several children did not want to leave. The event also resulted in at least five new families signing up for summer reading program and several new library cards as well.
Source of Additional Funds
The Fairfax Days Committee provided some additional promotion.
