Join us for Beyond Blaine—a thought-provoking conversation with leaders from diverse fields exploring what’s happening statewide and the shared experiences connecting Idaho communities.
In a rural recreation-driven community like ours, it’s easy to feel somewhat insulated from the broader policies, experiences, and influences shaping Idaho. But state-wide issues and priorities have a significant and often underrecognized impact on our daily lives.
This panel brings together leaders from across Idaho to explore how happenings across the state shape life here in Blaine County. From education and conservation to the arts and community services, join us for a conversation about the connections between state realities and local impact — and an opportunity to ask questions and deepen your understanding of the broader forces shaping our community.
Panelists Include:
Kevin Bailey, Vice President of Impact and Nonprofit Center, Idaho Community Foundation
Jenny Emery Davidson, Executive Director, The Community Library
Jim Foudy, Superintendent, Blaine County School District
David Pettyjohn, Executive Director, Idaho Humanities Council
Jared Talley, Idaho State Policy Advisor, The Nature Conservancy
The panel will be moderated by Sally Gillespie, Executive Director, Spur Community Foundation.
