In communities across the country, a concerted effort is often made to ensure all members of the community have access to a great deal of diverse recreational opportunities. According to John Ross Jesensky, there is quite a bit that other counties can learn from the manner in which Madera organizes its community calendar, particularly the clear focus placed on bringing community members together as often as possible.

Jesensky believes that the community calendar is at least partially responsible for the clear sense of fellowship that pervades the entire county, particularly since just about every member of the community can cite a shared experience with another community member. For community leaders seeking a strategy to establish a greater sense of fellowship in their county, the Madera community calendar appears to be an ideal template with which to begin.
