Our organization struggles with wide community involvement for our programs and problem solving though participation at events is very good. Planning and execution of the events falls to same few members. Suggestions and ideas will be appreciated for increasing community involvement in the improvement of our community, identification and solving of issues present in the community and planning, donations and volunteers for events. Production of a newsletter for the community was discussed. A junior FBPOA is another idea that might increase youth involvement in the community issues and events. This could include school credit for volunteer community activity.
