Mission: The village square provides an educational forum on matters of local, state, and national importance. We are dedicated to maintain factual accuracy in civic and political debate by growing civil dialogue on divisive issues, and recalling the history and principles at the foundation of our democracy.
Programs: Dinner at the square is a bipartisan educational forum on important civic topics held 3 times a year. It serves around 450 people on site in addition to online and radio audiences.
other programming is offered at no charge to about 1,500 citizens annually on important civic topics. Speakers from opposing sides of issues discuss solutions and fact check. Program examples include faith, food, fridays; town hall with city and county commissioners; "speed date" forum with local leaders; and club of honest citizens.
the village square receives periodic grants and pass through funds for various purposes such as assisting with startup of other village squares and local community projects.
