Future Plans* The goal of this event is not to bring funding to the EDA, but to bring tourists into <br />Kittitas County for an overnight stay. We will seek out sponsors for this event to <br />help cover costs. <br />The EDA has one of the most diversified budgets of the Washington Main Street <br />communities and we continue to look for ways to become more diverse and self- <br />sustaining. In the past year, we have increased many of our sponsorships by <br />creating packages that allow a sponsor to support multiple events, street furniture, <br />and other EDA projects all with one slightly larger donation. We also exercise our <br />various partnerships throughout the community for in kind donations and logged <br />thousands of volunteer hours. <br />2500 character linit <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 The Ellensburg Downtown Association continues to strive to make tourist's trips to <br />Downtown Ellensburg well rounded, positive, and something they will go back and <br />tell friends and family about. Through our design efforts, events, and promotion, we <br />have played a major role in creating a downtown people aim to visit. We regularly <br />evaluate our events to ensure they are growing and expanding or if they should be <br />let go to allow energy to be put elsewhere. Having the funding to help promote all <br />that we do is vital to our continued growth of downtown and as an organization. <br />2500 character linit <br />Supporting Documents You rray upload any supporting docurrants such as graphs, irrages, diagram,, rrarketing rraterials, etc. <br />You are allowed to subnit upto 3 single page (LB Letter) docurrents in JFG, FIT or TIFFforrrat <br />71 Previous Lodging Tax Grant Information <br />Previous Years f-tls your event received Lodging Tax funds in previous years? <br />A1Narded Lodging Tax ~ No, this eve riVprole ct has not previously received Lodging Tax Funding . <br />Grants* 0 Yes, 1 year p.re vl0u s <br />C Yes, 2 years previou s <br />0 Yes, 3 or more years previous <br />How many participants and spectators attended last year's activity and/or will attend <br />this year? <br />Prior Year* <br />0 <br />Projected* <br />600 <br />How many days did/will your event occur? <br />Prior Year* Projected* <br />0 <br />How many paid overnight stays were and/or will be booked as a result of your <br />project/ event?
