Development & Implementation of the Community Park Calendar Project Duration: 6 months Objective: To create, test, and implement a Community Park Calendar that provides up-to-date information on park-based activities, cultural gatherings, and wellness programs. The goal is to increase participation in parks among immigrant and refugee communities in Olmsted County by making event information more accessible, centralized, and culturally relevant. Project Phases & Deliverables Phase

1: Research & Planning (Weeks 1-6) Goal:

Understand what types of events the community wants, assess existing event calendars, and identify partners who can contribute. Key Tasks: Research existing park event calendars (Olmsted County Parks & City Parks, Go! Play! Explore!, local organizations, etc). Conduct community interviews or surveys (10-15 individuals) to assess: What events they are interested in. How they prefer to access event information (digital, print, WhatsApp, etc.). Identify key organizations (faith-based groups, cultural organizations, health initiatives) that regularly host outdoor events. Develop an initial plan for calendar format, content, and updating process.

Deliverables: Research report summarizing findings. Draft blueprint for the calendar structure and management.
