2021 was only our third Ciderfest, and the feedback we heard was that it was <br />extremely well planned and the feedback from ciderhouses, publications and others <br />in the industry has been entirely positive. Many of them now have WindFall on their <br />radar as having a capable team with good support from the Ellensburg/Kittitas <br />County community. <br />There are several connections which have been identified that we will strengthen in <br />the next planning process, and be able to take advantage of with more time and <br />organization. But interest has been documented and the willingness of people <br />to step oui for such a memory-making getaway event is proven. <br />Attached is Chinook Eniertainment's proposal for 2022 <br />This event is designed to highlight the agricultural environment that is not only <br />Kittitas County but all of Central Washington. lt draws attention to snraller family <br />farnrs, and the increasingly diverse ways that our rural nature is sustained by <br />producing orchard commodities in a newer ways (that are actually really old). <br />Cider is indeed trending, with a growing audience who support the market because <br />they like the flavor; they like the variety of flavors, they like that it's locally madet <br />they like that small orchards are getting a new lease on life; they like a frosty aduli <br />beverage on a hot day (and they're maybe a little tired of bee$; they are avoiding <br />gluten, they are focused on buying organicilocal; they want to try nrakrng it <br />themselves: they want to share it with others. <br />The music has also proven to be a great draw. Roots Music across the region <br />continues to have a loyal audience, and in fact, attendance at Chinook <br />Entertainment festivals is increasing although their 2020 event was cancelled due to <br />covid and 2021 was cancelled due to fires nearby their location. <br />2500 .haracler linri! <br />You may upload any supporting rlocunrents such as graphs inrages, d;a0rants. rtarkelir!g ntaierials. elc. <br />2022 Windf all Cider Proposal_Option A.pdf 1 59.69K8 <br />WindFall Cider Fest Registration 2021 - Online Sales <br />156.22K8 <br />Only.pdf <br />You are alloived to subnrii rp lo 3 siilgkl page iUS Letter) dqculnenls iB .lPG.
