robin” fashion to ensure all are comfortable sharing and have the opportunity to do so.

and note-taking on each.

their brainstorming responses.

• 6. Make sure that all members have provided their

responses before allowing time for free-flowing discussion.

• 7. If time permits, can go around the table again and

record answers for the group or move on to the next question.

How this is Going to Work

Imagine Davidson in 20-30 years, picture the people, events, and places throughout town. Now, focus on the three things that excite you about living here

• today. What will make Davidson even better in the

future—what do we have to do today to make your vision of the future happen?

Question 1 of 3

From the exploration survey and first round of engagement, it was clear through the results that diversity is an important value that Davidson wants to

• achieve. Diversity means a lot of different things to

different people—it can refer to people, places, experiences, and economic conditions like household income or tax base. What does diversity in Davidson mean to you?

Question 2 of 3

Often, when people think about the identity of Davidson, they focus on its “small town” feel. Think about what this term means to you and if it is an accurate description of the town. How important is this identity to embrace for the future of Davidson?
