I'm not sure if people are loving this booth activity, what should I do?
If you have feedback on a particular event or how we can improve the booth, we want to hear it! Since staff are not always able to make it out to events, we cannot determine what is working well and what needs to be changed. You are the eyes and the ears for the booth, the best critics, and the ones who know the booth the best. Your feedback helps us strengthen the booth to make it more engaging for nature lovers and future ambassadors! As we begin to wrap up the booth over the next couple of months, think of some ideas, or things you think need to be changed. Please email Joelle at
info@couchconservancy.ca.
