Future Plans* Over the last 12 years Suncadia's Harvest Festival is an annual ritual for many <br />families who not only live in Kittitas County, but those from other Washington State <br />communities. The goal of this event was to bring out-of !owners to into our <br />community during the Fall season when it is normally a slower time of the year. <br />With this being said, there are no active plans in place for this event to become <br />self-sustaining. It has long been discussed that this event institute a small <br />admission fee/donation to assist in recouping some of the cost of the event, but the <br />SFCE and Suncadia have thus far resisted this idea due to the negative impact <br />such a fee might have on the "spirit" of the event. However, in 2018, to grow the <br />event an admission fee and/or corporate sponsorships ½ill need to be considered <br />to assist ½ith increased costs. It has also been discussed that vendors might begin <br />charging for their services , such as the pony rides, petting zoo, face painting, and <br />wagon ride vendors. Currently, those activities are free for all festival attendees. <br />A plan to self-sustain has been created to insure that this event continue as ii is a <br />key event to the community. Strategies would include- <br />• Partnerships ½ith the follo½ing organizations to sponsor such activities (pony <br />rides, petting zoo, wagon rides, face painting, pumpkin patch, hay maze & pyramid , <br />live music etc. <br />o Suncadia Resort to fund the event <br />o Coke <br />o Sysco <br />o Duck Delivery <br />o United Salad <br />o DPI <br />o Bounce Pros Entertainment <br />o Chinook Entertainment <br />o S½iftwater Cellars <br />o Brown and Jackson <br />o Anderson Hay <br />o Jones Farm <br />ZBK Construction <br />o Suncadia Homeowners Association <br />o Local Community Support <br />• An admission fee per car would be added <br />• Small fee for activities <br />• Suncadia to donate all labor/venue/all marketing <br />• Raffles <br />2500 character lirrit <br />Application Questions: Part 4 ---------- <br />61 Additional Information <br />Provide any additional information which will assist the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee in evaluating your <br />project and its benefit to tourism. <br />Additional Information Suncadia Fund for Community Enhancement, strives to remain relevant to both <br />tourists and residents by providing interesting programs, events and festivals.
