Provide any additional information which will assist the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee in evaluating your
project and its benefit to tourism.
Additional Information Easton has approximately 450 residents that live here. The few volunteers that
work this event are proud to say that it has grown bigger and bigger every year.
We have grown significantly over the years. Our parade and street fair used to
bring in anywhere from 700 to 1000 people into the town. Within the last 3 years we
have nearly tripled those numbers by listening to our attendees in what they would
like to see or have at this event. We are hoping to hit around 4500 attendees this
year. We will also be working closely with and advertising the different types of
lodging available.
"This tiny little town comes alive for this one day a year."
We love to see people enjoying this beautiful, amazing area that we call home.

This is in response to your request dated Feb. 04, 2016, regarding
your tax-exempt status.
We issued you a determination letter in November 2014, recognizing
you as tax-exempt under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)

Our records also indicate you're not a private foundation as defined
under IRC Section 509(a) because you're described in IRC Section

Donors can deduct contributions they make to you as provided in IRC
Section 170. You're also qualified to receive tax deductible bequests,
legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts under IRC Sections 2055, 2106,
and 2522.
In the heading of this letter, we indicated whether you must file an
annual information return. If a return is required, you must file Form
990, 990 -EZ, 990-N, or 990 -PF by the 15th day of the fifth month after
the end of your annual accounting period. IRC Section 6033(j) provides
that, if you don't file a required annual information return or notice
for three consecutive years, your exempt status will be automatically
revoked an the filing due date of the third required return,or notice.
