Planning and Partnering for Community Events can be a challenge and rewarding. Come and hear from two of your colleagues who have had great success at planning community events. They will also provide useful templates to follow as you begin to plan your events. Come and learn and take time to share your successes as well. You can't always get want you want...but maybe these best practices will help your district get what you need.
