Junk-tiquen in the burl Attachment Ib Attendance aQ. Fail Show 2015 Shoppers were lined up waiting for the doors to open. Being the 1st show, I projected to have 500 shoppers attend and was pleasantly surprised when there were over 900 in attendance! The target audience was age 18-80 and everything in between. A survey was conducted in which 183 people com- pleted it (20% of attendees). Of the 183 people I was able to conclude the following: 20 and under 17 40 to 50 32 20 to 30 16 50 to 60 57 30 to 40 22 60+ 38 My survey supported the saying "shoppers will travel miles to catch the next show" reflecting: Ellensburg 104 Tri -Cities 11 Yakima Area 23 West Side 9 Yakima Valley 10 Out of State 6 Two shoppers were new to Ellensburg! Of the 183 completed surveys, 17 shoppers and 8 vendors stayed the night (26% of completed surveys/vendors), bringing in approximately $2,100 in hotel revenue, more consumers of fuel, food and other shopping in our county. As you can see in the survey results, it reflected there was a strong support locally. Receiving this grant will allow advertising to reach more markets and draw more shoppers and vendors from out of the area. More out of town shoppers and vendors will increase hotel and local business revenue, enhance the quality of show for our county residents and increase oppor- tunities to support local fundraising efforts.
