Waterloo Greenway Conservancy Glow In The Park With Katherine Farmer-Thornhill And Gary Farmer

Fun In Fundraising

How can an organization effectively draw multiple generations of their community to their annual gala or signature fundraising event? Today, I talk with Katherine Farmer-Thornhill and Gary Farmer, co-chairs of the Waterloo Greenway Conservancy's annual Glow In The Park Gala.

This father-daughter duo is leading one of Austin's most notable and fun al fresco events. Guests will be on hand for a great night on the world-class Moody Amphitheater lawn for community and camaraderie that includes a family-style meal, live music, and a super fun cocktail and sneakers attire theme.

In this episode, Katherine and Gary talk about a wide range of topics including tips on a strong committee that has people of varying age groups and perspectives, tips on leading an event with a parent/child, and the importance of showing up more broadly in your community to draw a fun, wide-ranging group of people to your annual event. This is one episode you will not want to miss.
