Future Plans* The Kittitas County Historical Museum has plans to make this program self- <br />sustaining. <br />Due to the success of the advertising, the Museum's Board of Directors has <br />become educated about the rate of return of the advertising investment and <br />maintains a budget line of $2,500 to match any advertising or reach alternative <br />markets. <br />We have received an increased rate of donations to the museum as a result of <br />increased visitation to the museum, which we attribute to the current advertising <br />campaign. We have also increased our membership program in which the fees go <br />towards funding events, activities, and programs. <br />Walking Tours: <br />With the success of the walking tour program, we are developing the tour program <br />into some free tour opportunities while some would be at cost. <br />Anticipated models forecast offer the following for planned income and expense: <br />Tour projected gross income: <br />8 tours x 15 people per tour x $10 per person = $1,200 income. This may be <br />adjusted depending on specific tour or event but reflects an average offering. <br />Tour projected expense: <br />8 tours x 15 people per tour x $5 per person fee tour -guide fee = $600 expense. <br />Depending on the specific tour, the expense may be adjusted. The Museum would <br />also incur all processing fees for credit-card transactions. <br />We are also planning a 21 -and -over walking tour that will be packaged through a <br />local hotel and restaurant/bar. These would be $25 per person and would include a <br />drink at the end of the tour. The cost model currently looks at approximately $1,250 <br />in gross income. Expenses are being researched as we reach out to partner <br />organizations and hotels. <br />Additional tours are available at a cost of $10 per person with a minimum of 5 <br />people, and would have reflective expenses as listed above. We anticipate at least <br />2 private tours in 2019. <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 2500 character lirrit <br />Supporting Documents You nay upload any supporting documents such as graphs, irreges, diagrarrs, rrarketing rreterials, etc, <br />Grantl .pdf 105.71 KB <br />You are allowed to subrrit up to 3 single page (US Letter) docurrants in JFG, FDF or 11FF forrrat <br />71 Previous Lodging Tax Grant Information <br />Previous Years lbs your event received Lodging Tax funds in previous years? <br />Awarded Lodging Tax r No, this event/project has not previously received Lodging Tax Funding. <br />Grants* r Yes, 1 year previous <br />r Yes, 2 years previous <br />f• Yes, 3 or more years previous <br />
