Community alliance offers district outreach and promotion
Summary
The Westport Wadhams Community Alliance introduced itself to the Boquet Valley CSD board and offered to promote school events through its newsletter (about 600 subscribers) and social channels; the group provided a contact email for collaboration.
Alyssa Carroll, who identified herself as president-elect of the Westport Wadhams Community Alliance, told the Boquet Valley CSD board the alliance formed to "promote collaboration among public and private entities within Westport and Wadhams." She said the alliance is now a 501(c)(3) and invited the district to use its mailing lists and social channels to publicize school activities.
Carroll gave a direct contact for outreach—info@gowestportny.com—and said the alliance's social-media manager, Catherine, compiles a newsletter that reaches about 600 recipients. Board members and alliance representatives discussed practical steps for sharing information, including newsletter submission and calendar postings. "If you ever have any information sharing that you want to send our way, that email address is really the best way to get to us," Carroll said.
