Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Schedule an appearance or concert with another choral group which does not share our typical audience. Seek to appear before audiences in a wide area including parts of Dakota, Goodhue and Rice counties besides in Northfield. Performance schedule will indicate where we have performed and who we have performed with.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We increased our audience reach by doing a joint concert with the Seasoned Singers, a women's choir in Northfield. We appeared at Northfield’s Winter Walk celebration in December and at the Northfield Arts Guild open house.
