The survey was scheduled to close on June 8, and due to an increase in survey responses over the weekend it remained open until June 10. We were thrilled to receive over 1,100 responses to the survey. Keep an eye out for the survey results to be posted soon.
Thank you to everyone who joined the Community Collaboration Sessions on June 6 & 8!
Two Community Collaboration Sessions were held on June 6 and 8 at Madison College and attended by over 30 people. There was a fantastic panel discussion covering topics including flight schedules, noise mitigation, community and national benefits and building stronger collaboration between the 115th Fighter Wing and the community. Attendees gathered information from the panel members on these very important topics.
The 115th Fighter Wing has created a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document to ease community access to some of the basic information commonly requested.
Our first round of in-person discussions, the Community Listening Sessions took place February 1, 2, and 3 at Madison College. These conversations were just the beginning of our work. Stay tuned for followup from these sessions, next steps and future engagement opportunities.
The Madison F35 Community Connection project is an attempt at building a stronger relationship between the Madison community and the 115th Fighter Wing at Madison’s Truax Field through education and engagement.
