In an effort to improve visitor experiences at Rogers Environmental Education Center in Sherburne, Friends of Rogers is collaborating with Associate Professor Diane Kuehn from the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse.
Throughout the summer, Dr. Kuehn and Friends of Rogers have been conducting regional marketing research utilizing a brief visitor survey. All those interested in providing feedback on the Rogers Center experience are invited to take this survey, located at surveymonkey.com/r/REEC_survey. Survey collection will end Aug. 20.
“By taking this three-minute survey, you will help us plan community programs that most closely fit your interests,” said Simon Solomon, executive director. “Responses will be treated as confidential and will not be used for any other purposes. We thank you in advance for your valuable input!”
