Enjoy savory & sweet treats and celebration starting at 5:30. Around 6:10 we will move into a quick overview of what was accomplished and open up for questions and discussion about the season and steps moving forward. Then go back for another round of snacks and celebration.

This season we are using a “START/STOP/CONTINUE” exercise to help us capture how the season went and where we are going for 2018-2019.

START — What should we consider starting or doing differently as a way to improve things?
STOP — What should we stop doing or phase out because it’s not working well or we’ve outgrown it.
CONTINUE — What’s working really well that we should proactively continue or maintain?

Please take time to participate no matter your role in this project, this year or since we began. Please complete this exercise, before May 15th to help in our season end review & future planning! Click here for: Emergency Warming Center: 2017-2018 Season Survey .
