Alpine Community Hub 3 Phase Rollout

My Current Vision of How the Community Hub will Roll Out

Warning: This is not a pretty, slick page designed to sell you on an idea. There are a lot of words and ideas. It is my brainstorm to give you a rough idea of what could be possible. To find other people who like this idea and want to be part of steering the direction or just providing some feedback along the way. If you aren’t interested in that no problem, we will give you a clearer version in the future and along the way.

The following is a list of ideas and programs I see available through the Community Hub. The idea isn’t that I do all of these things; it is that through this platform, we can collaborate and use our community resources and gifts to build and implement a space that supports our community. Through the community, we may discover other opportunities that aren’t listed and/or change priorities. When more people are involved, other opportunities, ideas, and perspectives can shape a strong platform and vision.
