WHO:
- Small town and rural residents in Western and Central WI who are leaders trying to do things in their community,
- Folks who care about their neighbors who are struggling and want to help, or
- Small town and rural congregation members.
WHAT:
A gathering to connect, share small town values and local activities, and learn tools to bring people together.
WHEN:
Saturday, October 21, 2023 from 8-5pm
WHERE:
Our Saviors Lutheran Church in Stanley, WI at 147 E 4th Avenue, Stanley, WI 54768
WHY:
Resources are spread thin in rural areas and people are struggling. If we work together we can improve this. Small town neighbors who want to work together for a positive community have shared they feel isolated or don’t have the tools to create the things they would like to in their towns – this gathering is designed to counter that. Meet other individuals who care about rural communities and all their residents!
