We’re thankful to Think Tank, Inc. for allowing us, Park National Bank, and Hi-Hat Social to partner in bringing the powerful At the Table event to our community. Leadership from throughout the city and county participated in this valuable initiative, sitting alongside dynamic individuals who shared their raw lived experiences in ways that sparked meaningful conversation, deeper understanding, and new perspectives.

If you weren’t able to make it, don’t worry! We hope to bring this experience back again in the near future. Reach out to Think Tank or Springfield Foundation if you’re interested in learning more.
