Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Though numbers of participants in an outdoor event with no structured boundaries are hard to be exact; we hope to increase audience by at least 100 participants per session. We hope to increase dancer participation by at least 25 dancers. In order to better serve and attract dancers we will conduct direct contact surveys/questionnaires. Using volunteer staff we will strive to undertake audience counts at all three sessions of the wacipi.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Event cancelled due to weather.
