“Speak softly and carry statistics.” 📊

We’re excited to continue the converstation with rural sociologist Ben Winchester's team and dive deeper into the data shaping our own community. Using Pelican Fest as a case study, we’ll explore what the numbers really say about rural vitality, tourism, community identity, and the future of small towns.

If you enjoyed “Rewriting the Rural Narrative,” you won’t want to miss this sequel event.

Please RSVP on the Chamber Site so we can account for food!👇
