Townsend Historical Society Community Opinion Survey |
Why Does Our History Matter? Share Your Thoughts!
Established in 1896, the Townsend Historical Society is your community’s center for local history and culture. Originally formed to collect and preserve artifacts, stories, and lore, a whole lot has changed since inception. The Society incorporated as a 501(c)3 non-profit museum, we expanded our mission to include the preservation of important works of architecture, we found a permanent home for our collections/archives, we revamped our program offerings, and we celebrated several major milestones! Not bad for 125 years old!
While our focus is on the past, we do look to the future. The Society is turning our attention to long term planning. This is where we need your help! We want to learn more about how our own community members view our organization. We ask that you take a few minutes to fill out our survey. Tell us why history matters! With only a dozen or so questions, it should take you no more than 5-10 minutes. Your answers will provide us with critical data to be used in the strategic planning process. More immediately, it will also help us more effectively share history with you, our audience.
Be assured that your individual answers will remain strictly confidential. The Townsend Historical Society is committed to your privacy. We will not sell or distribute any information about responders. With your permission, however, we may reach out to you if we have questions about your responses.
If you do not want to complete the online version, paper copies of the survey will be made available at the Museum, Town Hall and Library. Completed surveys can be submitted by mailing them to P.O. Box 95, Townsend, Massachusetts 01469 or hand delivering them to our office at 72 Main Street in Townsend Harbor.
Thank you in advance for taking our survey. Your input is very important to us.
