Beyond Bicentennial welcomes whole <strong>to</strong>wn<br />

Press Release By Daniel Schemer<br />

The Town <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fairhaven</strong> wants its<br />

residents and workers linked in<strong>to</strong><br />

local issues, current affairs and urban<br />

planning by attending its Community-<br />

Building and Visioning Forum on<br />

Sunday, November 4, from 1:00PM –<br />

4:00PM, at Town Hall.<br />

“We are putting on <strong>the</strong> Forum <strong>to</strong><br />

take some time <strong>to</strong> come <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r as a<br />

community <strong>to</strong> think about Fair -<br />

haven’s future,” said Deirdre Healy,<br />

Direc<strong>to</strong>r <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Fairhaven</strong> Sustaina -<br />

bility Committee (FSC).<br />

The Forum is part <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fairhaven</strong>’s<br />

“Beyond <strong>the</strong> Bicentennial” campaign,<br />

a season-long collaboration between<br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>Fairhaven</strong> Bicentennial Committee<br />

and FSC, meant <strong>to</strong> bolster public<br />

involve ment in civic affairs.<br />

The mission behind Beyond <strong>the</strong><br />

Bicentennial is <strong>to</strong> encapsulate what<br />

<strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong> <strong>Fairhaven</strong> want for <strong>the</strong><br />

future <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>to</strong>wn. Riding on coattails<br />

<strong>of</strong> success from this past summer’s<br />

Bicentennial celebration, both com -<br />

mit tees came <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r <strong>to</strong> contem -<br />

plate what <strong>to</strong> do next.<br />

“The synergy between The Bicen -<br />

ten nial Committee and <strong>Fairhaven</strong><br />

sustainability committee thought this<br />

would be an ideal time <strong>to</strong> come<br />

<strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r and think about ‘Beyond <strong>the</strong><br />

Bicentennial,’” said Mrs. Healy.<br />

The Community-Building and<br />

Vision ing Forum will be a heavily<br />

participa<strong>to</strong>ry assembly with round<br />

table dialogue and brains<strong>to</strong>rming on<br />

as many <strong>to</strong>pics as possible. Examples<br />

are increased recycling and anti-litter<br />

campaigns, utilizing public spaces for<br />

more <strong>to</strong>wn events, proposals <strong>to</strong> help<br />

a small business economy, expanding<br />

cultural and his<strong>to</strong>rical points, etc.<br />

In addition, <strong>the</strong> Forum is also<br />

about recognizing <strong>Fairhaven</strong>’s assets<br />

and strengths and how <strong>to</strong> incorporate<br />

<strong>the</strong>m in<strong>to</strong> a long-term strategic plan<br />

securing <strong>the</strong> <strong>to</strong>wn’s health and<br />

prosperity.<br />

Once all <strong>the</strong> primary issues are<br />

identified, action groups will be<br />

formed <strong>to</strong> organize solutions.<br />

“We hope <strong>to</strong> establish connections<br />

and generate positive energy around<br />

<strong>the</strong> harnessing <strong>of</strong> ideas,” explained<br />

Mrs. Healy.<br />

A pr<strong>of</strong>essional Facilita<strong>to</strong>r will be<br />

present <strong>to</strong> open up <strong>the</strong> Forum, initiate<br />

dialogue, keep attendees on track<br />

with <strong>the</strong> allotted time, convey<br />

groups, and meet <strong>the</strong> overall goal <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> event.<br />
