body text: Community Conversations Project 1:30 p.m. Aug. 11 at the Library. This summer, the Chatham Public Library is hosting conversations with people across the community. Each 60 to 90-minute conversation is a chance for the Library to better understand your aspirations for the community, the concerns you have and what you believe might make a difference in strengthening the community. The Library will take what they learn from these conversations and use it to help make its work in the community more effective.
These will not be conversations about the library, town business or politics — they will be conversations about what matters to residents like you. They are meant to help everyone understand our community and forge better ways of getting things done together. RSVP at https://bit.ly/CPL_Conversation22 to participate. The Library will share the feedback gathered from these conversations with the residents and organizations of Chatham and surrounding communities so all can learn from the insights that are shared.
