Driving forces & Barriers

Driving forces:

• potentially bring the class of 2012 closer
• bonding outside of school with class mates
• At the end of 1st quarter, time to relax
• you can see a different side of acquiescence you may have
• Create memories
• Show of skills to peers
• Chill, enjoy a lay back activity
• original while refreshing
• everyone in the junior class at AHS is invited. no one is left out

Barriers:

• Low number of participants
• participation based on price of the tickets
• plans and or dates won't fit with majority of students
• People may arrive late and if the bowling alley has limited hours the tickets pay for, students won't take advantage of playing time.
• choosing a time that suits well with majority
• traveling distances
• people may like the idea, though when it comes down to buying tickets, they don't.
• word may not spread around quickly/unpopular
• students aren't interested
• hi line lanes isn't that nice of a hang out joint

Barriers I CAN control!

participation based on price of the tickets

One of the more important goals in this particular project is having a price range that will be affordable for everyone. For example, $10 dollars might not cost that much for "Bob", but to "Tom", $10 dollars may be over his spending limit. I would like to minimize the cost for the tickets as low as I can so that participation won't be based on the price of the tickets.

word may not spread around quickly/unpopular

A effective way to take care of this is to make posters and chose group members who don't necessarily hang out in the same group. If I ask specific group members to join this leadership project, who hang out in different crowds, it is more likely that the word will spread and more students will be interested. I also hope to make poster as well as making a event on facebook.

choosing a time that suits well with majority

Along with surveying for who is interested in this event, I would like to ask for opinions on what times would work best and what times wont. If i can narrow it down to three different times, I would like to have students choose and based on what students chose, then I would have that time arranged.
