If your organization collaborates or has created partnerships with other organizations, <br />groups, or other events to cross -promote in an effort to encourage county -wide <br />tourism, how is this accomplished? <br />Yes, Forterra collaborates with several groups in Kittitas County and across the state to <br />promote and encourage tourism. In particular, we collaborate with the following groups: <br />a. Kittitas County Chamber of Commerce <br />b. Ellensburg Downtown Association <br />c. Mid -Columbia Fisheries Enhancement Group <br />d. WA Department of Fish and Wildlife, Bureau of Land Management, WA <br />Department of Transportation, WA State Parks, WA Department of Ecology <br />e.

Please explain what plans exist to allow this project to become self-sustaining. Include <br />any plans for ticket sales, event sponsors, and other cost -recovery models. <br />Forterra already has plans for sponsorship levels, vendor's fees, and cost -covering registration <br />fees for participation. As the event grows and becomes an annual event, we believe that our <br />registration fees, sponsorship levels will increase and we will attract more vendors over time, <br />which will reduce our need for additional grant funds. <br />7.
