The Lead- ership Fayetteville program highlighted many of the outstanding organizations in our area and the important work that they do for the citizens of Northwest Arkansas. The program has also helped to connect me with several individuals whom I have had the pleasure of working with since our time with the program. Benefits and connections The program gave me greater awareness of the re- sources that we have available in our community which has aided in my ability to assist others with options and opportunities. My participation in Leadership Fayetteville improved my awareness regarding the needs in our community and the organizations that are working to fulfill needs. Favorite program aspect The Leadership Fayetteville staff did a great job of creating what I considered to be an educational experi- ence. Recommendation I cannot imagine that anyone could participate in the Leadership Fayetteville program and not have an increased desire to get more involved in our community. Best thing about Fayetteville The best thing about Fayetteville is the people and our sense of community. 15 Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce
