Future Plans* The Film Festival has consistent tickets sales, grants and a few small events <br />throughout the year that generate revenue for EFF. We also have Festival and film <br />sponsors, and a few generous donors. The Festival is financially sound and <br />revenue generated over and above ticket sales, such as the lodging tax funds we <br />are requested, is used to market to wide audiences with the goal of growng the <br />Festival in terms of the number of attendees. <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 EFF is a volunteer -staffed organization, operating under the 501(c)3 status of the <br />Laughing Horse Arts Foundation.
