(For example , if there v.,as a survey conducted for the prior year , explain the methodology. For the projections, what are they based upon and how is that basis justified?) Prior Year Paid Overnight's Stay Response* Prior Year Paid Overnight Stay Data In prior years, we have verbally surveyed people as they entered a venue for one of the screenings. We asked for zip codes to determine where attendees came from. We provided EFF information for all hotels with signage asking guests to tell the staff if they were attending the Festival to get a "goody bag". After the Festival, we surveyed the hotels to see how many guests were in town for the Festival and how many nights those guests stayed . For 2017 , we plan to have a printed survey asking people questions about the distance they traveled and their hotel stay . As an incentive to ensure people complete the survey, we will have a drawing and give av.,ay Festival passes to the 2018 event. We will also continue to oork with the hotels in the same manner as past years. 2500 character limt . h addition to field above, you ITBY upload the evidence to support the prior years' roorrinight inforrmtion.
