We need to email evaluation to Summit leaders

The turn out was excellent especially given the early morning snow. There was a great mix of the parish various committees represented. The energy in the room and in the table conversation was excellent.

The table conversation was good.

The presentations were good with the finance going a little long because of the questions and people growing understanding of the budget and impact to the parish.

For some there was too much detail and yet that was to be expected given that the presentations was based on numbers.

People felt like they truly understood the budget and appreciated the openness and accountability around where the parish money is spent. The participants recommended that the entire parish here the financial presentation so they understand the parish budget.

The demographic graphs were helpful in painting a picture.

Expand the number of people at the summit to include staff, Stewardship Committee, teachers and people on the updated list. The more people that are involved the greater the ownership in the parish direction.

Role of Volunteer Coordinator- There is a concern that people will feel this person should be the one recruiting and not continue gaining members for their committee and that she is a support.
