You do not have to be participating in a Sullivan Renaissance project in your community to become part of the “Renaissance” that is taking place in Sullivan County. Everyone can do something – it’s as easy as planting a garden, hanging a flower basket or painting your front porch! |
Renaissance Seminar
Pre-register by email »
Sullivan Renaissance is holding a seminar on “How to Present a Community Project” on Wednesday, June 4, 2008 at 7:00 p.m. in the CVI Building in Liberty.
The seminar focuses on how communities can best describe a project to potential volunteers, funding sources and the community at large, as well as prepare for the judging that will take place on August 8, 9 and 10. This is a good opportunity for new groups to analyze projects through the eyes of the larger community and to plan for some of the longer term implications. It’s also a chance for returning organizations to look at their endeavor through fresh eyes.
“Being able to describe a community endeavor in favorable terms – while breaking down the needs into “volunteer-size bites” – is an art,” said Sullivan Renaissance Program Director Glenn Pontier. “Our staff will talk about long-range planning, volunteerism, fundraising, project management and other related issues.”
The seminar will also review the Renaissance judging criteria, including aesthetic improvement, collaboration, youth involvement, maintenance and sustainability.
Space is limited, pre-registration is advised. Refreshments will be served.
