Wolfville Community Oven participants and their buddies to make food, cook, sit down, enjoy the outdoors and get to know each other better! Many current S.M.I.L.E. activities are indoors, and this could lead to a great new atmosphere for participants (of course this could only happen if those involved were okay with the change of scenery). The potential stakeholders within the Wolfville Community that were identified are... Paddy’s Brewpub and Rosie’s Restaurant: Since the WCO would be setup is right behind Paddy’s Brewpub and Rosie’s Restaurant it is important to have an open conversation with the business about any concerns that they might have. This would be a mutually beneficial relationship as both Paddy’s and WCO could promote one another! Rotary Club: As the Wolfville Rotary club supports the wellbeing of the community, the WCO would be something that the organization would likely support. The Rotary Club also has a large influence on the community and could potential play a key role in promoting the WCO. Wolfville Farmers Market: The Wolfville Farmers Market has a wonderful reputation in Wolfville and has a large influence on many of the community members. In addition, it is important to establish a good relationship with the Wolfville Farmers Market, as the oven will be located just across the street. Some other stakeholders that have been discussed would include Acadia University summer camps, the Wolfville Business Development Cooperation, Blomidon Naturalist Society, the owner at La Torta, Mayor Jeff Cantwell, and various Councillors that are apart of the Wolfville municipal government. Previously stated stakeholders are specific examples from Acadia University and Wolfville. However, more general important contacts would be local sporting organizations, schools (elementary, high school, or postsecondary), local restaurants, and nearby community influencers. Also, it is important to consider any individuals as stakeholders such as business owners and community members. 4 37
