Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The chairs will be used for approximately six outdoor performances a year so the band will not have to rent chairs or band members provide their own chairs. Setting up for outdoor concerts will be faster and easier and we won't have to rent or borrow chairs.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The equipment enables the band in perform in more venues without renting equipment or asking members to buy their own chairs.
