Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The proposed outcome was measured by the amount of participants in the play along with an evaluation form. Since the Prairie Fire Children's Theater has such great reviews, we figured there would be a good amount of participation that went into the program.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Everyone who attended the program enjoyed the performance and loved seeing local kids as entertainment. The kids had a lot of fun practicing for the performance and ultimately performing the play of Snow White. This program was a great way for children to get involved during the summer months.

Source of Additional Funds

The Northwest Minnesota Foundation helped out with money from the Greenbush Community Fund. The Greenbush Friends of the Library group worked hard to line up and organize the event along with working with the kids for practices and performances. They supplied the attendees and participants with food and treats. The program's practices and performances were held at the Greenbush School.
