Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Hope that kids will come away wanting to get involved with music and play instruments. Hoping that those attending will enjoy the program and go home with the feeling that they were very glad they took the time to attend. That people in the community will be happy that the library was able to provide them with entertainment. Participant evaluation/surveys will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

More elderly adults attended the program than we expected and all seemed very pleased with the program. They too are always looking for something local to do. Kids had fun watching and listening to the music and stories. We had great feedback with Limber Jack being a favorite of the kids.
