It was a great day, saw some amazing things in the community than driving Great idea to bring the community together. Getting to know what’s available. And loved the idea of families doing this together The school being open and used just added to an immense amount of a sense of community

See you next year Good team building/ bonding Enjoyed meeting new people and getting to know them I have enjoyed my day today and made new friends I would like to help out if there is something like this. Loved the experience. Feel inspired to start one up in my home community - Samoa. Good to know that there is hope

  14. Are we building community or just running a fun event? • What assets have we discovered? • What happens to the stakeholders? • What happens to participants who want to get more locally involved? • What follow-up research could we do? • Can we do OAP with smaller more intimate routes where people can take their time? • Can we run OAP for 500 plus people/ event? • What messages are important for OAP (e.g. eco-sustainability, resilient communities)?
