Future Plans* As a non-profit we are always searching out local event sponsors. This can be <br />difficult in a small community that is tapped out with sponsorship requests and <br />sponsors outside the area tend to want to sponsor only events within their own <br />community. Therefore the 2018 Sponsorship packet has been updated to not only <br />continue to include our higher priced all-inclusive sponsorships but we have now <br />added smaller priced sponsorships that will allow a larger number of businesses to <br />sponsor the event at a more affordable fee. Our comprehensive sponsorship <br />program continue to offer businesses and individuals the opportunity to choose <br />among different sponsorship packages so that they can find one that will best suit <br />their needs. We also offer the opportunity for businesses to promote themselves <br />on our event program with different page size business ads. We will be offering <br />businesses a rack card partnership. These are rack cards that will be distributed <br />year-round where a business can include a special coupon discount. We continue <br />to listen to our event attendees survey results and improve on entertainment <br />choices, ticket prices and concert venues with the goal of increasing ticket sales. In <br />order to cut costs and not have to eliminate fee events, we will not be holding a <br />concert in the more larger, more expensive Central Washington University Concert <br />Hall. Our goal is to not only save money on venue costs, but to sell out at ta slightly <br />smaller concert venue and therefore not have to raise ticket prices. We have also <br />increased our local partnerships in order to obtain decreased fees for venue <br />locations. With the lowering of vendor fees from last year and reaching out to past <br />and new vendors who are able to participate. <br />Listening to vendor feedback, we will not be using pipe and drape which is an <br />added expense. The Spirit of the West Showcase event that will offer new <br />performers an opportunity to present their music and poetry for a chance to <br />participate as a performer at the 2019 Spirit of the West Cowboy Gathering. The <br />final performers will present their poetry and music at a ticketed event where <br />attendees will have the opportunity to vote on the performers. This event is <br />planned to occur twice during the year. <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 see attached. <br />2500 character lirrit <br />Supporting Documents You rmy upload any supporting docurrents such as graphs, irmges, diagram;, rTBrketing 1TBterials. etc. <br />NKCTribune_SOW(2).pdf <br />Homepage dropdown.jpg <br />You are allowed to subnit up to 3 single page (LB Letter) docurrents in Jffi, RF or TIFFforrmt <br />1.74MB <br />4.69MB <br />71 Previous Lodging Tax Grant Information <br />Previous Years <br />Awarded Lodging Tax <br />Grants* <br />1-Bs your event received Lodging Tax funds in previous years? <br />0 No, this evenUproject has not previously received Lodging Tax Funding. <br />0 Yes, 1 year previous <br />0 Yes, 2 years previous <br />(,) Yes, 3 or more years previous <br />How many participants and spectators attended last year's activity and/or will attend <br />this year?
