OUR APPROACH

The Alumni Workshop builds on skills that leaders need to create stronger, more resilient rural communities. It also brings alumni back together to learn from peers and continue building relationships that are necessary for economic development. The event runs from about midday on Thursday to midday on Friday for two days of learning in true Your Town Alabama spirit: hands-on, collaborative, and fun. 

Lodging & Board

Participants are offered single and double occupancy rooms with private bathrooms. All meals are included in your workshop fee and provided in one of Camp McDowell’s beautiful dining halls, where most of the food is grown at their on-site farm. Visit campmcdowell.org to learn more.
