Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Our aim is to continue providing a local performance opportunity for trained adult amateur musicians, and to enable local audiences, often in rural settings, to experience symphonic music.We will continue to poll members for feedback, and receive ideas and suggestions from audiences, including tear-off questionnaires in the programs, feedback interviews with our sponsors, and an annual questionnaire for performance musicians.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We met our goals with a new concert venue in Cannon Falls, clustering rehearsals just prior to concerts, and increasing the effectiveness of our website and Facebook outlets.
