Each group discussion will explore the past, current, and desired future conditions for that particular community value. Please select one community value that you are most interested in. 7:40 Reviewing Our Goals: Open House Format To allow all community members an opportunity to review and comment on all the values, each facilitator and 1 community volunteer will hang their posters summarizing their discussion around the room for review. Please take this time to ask questions and share your ideas on the goals identified. 7:55 What Happens Next?
