This would hinder our ability to engage a broader demographic of tourists <br />and visitors. limiting the potential economic impact on the local community. <br />Fewer Enhancements to Events: We would not be able to introduce new features, activities, or experiences to our events, which <br />are essential for maintaining visitor interest and driving repeat attendance. Enhancemetrts such as improved entertainment, <br />additional vendors, and activities cor"rld be scaled back. <br />Decreased Flexibility for Tourism Promotion. Without the additional funding, we would have less flexibility to explore unique <br />digital marketing strategies, such as social media campaigns, targeted online ads and tourism plaiforms. <br />Overall Slower Growth: Ultimaiely. without the additional funds, our ability to scale our tourism marketing and outreach efforts <br />would be significantly hindered, resulting in slower growth in both visitor numbers and economic benefits for the downtown area. <br />ln summary, while we would continue our current activities, the opportuniiy to innovate, expand. and improve would be limited <br />impacting our long-ierm goals for tourism growth and community engagement. <br />2500 character lifiit. <br />Matching Funds Percentage <br />644.60 <br />This field !1i11 aulo fill with ihe correct percenlage based or yoi.[ inprit to i)udqet seclion belo\i/. <br />9l Project Budget Overview <br />Please complete budget for this projecVproposal. lf your agency operates independently of thts project application it may not be necessary <br />to submit the entire agency budget.
