Wayne County's is currently participating in University of Georgia Carl Vinson Institute's PROPEL program. PROPEL (Planning Rural Opportunities for Prosperity and Economic Leadership) is a nationally recognized program that leads rural communities through a multi-step process focusing on economic development to assist communities like us with resources to support community development strategies.

On Thursday, June 18 at Cracker Williams Recreation Center, we invite you to a community listening session to share ideas, discuss priorites and help shape a long term vision for WC's future! Participants will then be asked a series of questions about Wayne County’s strengths, challenges, opportunities, and priorities for the future and a QR code-based polling platform that will allow citizens to submit responses anonymously using their phones.
All feedback collected through the polling platform will be compiled and used to help inform the community vision and PROPEL strategic priorities.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REGISTER TO ATTEND.
