The Memorial Day Celebration is in its thirty-first year, it occurs on the Saturday of
first three-day holiday of the year and has become an event that brings visitors and
tourists to this small community. lt is a day that ihe community of Easton triples in
size as the celebration offers not only a unigue and fun parade, but a car show
street faiq a KidZone and time to celebrate our Nalion.
Memorial Day is statistically the highest traffic volume of the year. According to the
WSDOT Geoportal Map. l-90 has anywhere from 40,000 to 80.000 vehicles on a
daily average traveling over Snoqualmie Pass. Coming from the west, visitors enter
Kittitas County at the top of Snoqualmie Pass and Easton is the first town in Eastern
Washington for visitors. Surrounded by State and Federal campgrounds, private
recreational lodging, Memorial Day weekend is one of busiest for overnight stays.
Only one hour from Seattle, day trips to hike, bike, fish, and multiple other
recreational experiences can be accessed at Easton. Those who are traveling from
the east, find that Easton is an easy location to travel to visit for a day, and celebrate
the three day weekend. The Memorial Day Celebration offers additional incentive for
visitors to stay overnight at one of the many campgrounds and private lodging
facilities offered close by.

When the Easton Memorial Day Celebration began, thirty-one years ago jn 1991,
the event was primarily local people having fun and gathering to hold a parade in
celebration of Memorial Day. lt provided an opportunity for community members to
gather, enjoy each other and to remember those who fought for our Nation. As the
event became more popular. and more volunteers came on board to plan. the event
became a daylong celebration. The celebration increased from offering a parade to
adding a street fair, car shoq motorcycle show and KidZone.
Seeing the opporiunity to provide a unique event in a very small town, the committee
began to look for more ways to market and promote the celebration. With the help of
Kittitas CLTAC grant funds the committee additional marketing options to help
spread the work about the Memorial Day Celebration. Using paid advertising. online
marketing. printed posters and flyers that were dislributed widely, we saw out small
local event growing into a popular event which began drawing more and more
people 50 miles or fariher away. ln 2019, we had our largest participation, 4,000
people! Our small-town community event has become a small-town celebration to
pui on your calendar and aitend.

We plan to use multiple ways to attract tourists. Paid advertising on Kittitas and
Yakima radto stations. design and distribute posters and flyers, place paid ads on
our social media platforms and keep our website updated with Memorial Day
celebration activities. The comnrittee works together to distribute information on the
Memorial Day Celebration. From Snoqualmie Pass to Ellensburg, print flyers and
posters are placed in as many locations as we can possibly put them. We print small
postcards that are distributed event to lodging locations so that their guests are
given them when they check-in. lnformation on the Easton Memorial Day
Celebration is posted on Discover Cle Elum. Kittitas County Chamber of Commerce,
Easton School District, Easion Fire Department, and multiple Facebook pages. This
has provided a tremendous amount of free promotion. We plan to continue with
these partnerships and look for additional ones that can help promote to a larger
audience.
This year through a generous donation, we will be able to update our website and
make it more interactive to visitors. For thirty-one years our event materials have
been either hand made or designed by committee members using limited
knowledge. This year we are updating our publiciiy by adding additional funds jn our
Memorial Day Celebration budget to receive help with our publicity and event
promotion. lt ts time for us to identify and adopt some new or expanded ways in
which we can promote this wonderful celebration_ We recognize that in ihe two years
since our event has occurred, there ate new tips and ways to atttact visitors and
tourists. A lot of these changes align to online ntarketing and social media tools,
sueh as geofencing, lnstagram, paid advertising. YouTube and increasing our co-
marketing with local partners to obtain help in sharing about our event.

how is this accomplished?
4.1 Collaboration *The Easton Memorial Day Celebration Committee takes time, each year, to confirm
partnerships and identify possible new ones. The commiitee is made up of
community members and those who represent the Easton Fire Department, Easton
School District, local organizations and businesses in Easton. Many of our partners
provide important components of the day's celebration. As an example, the Cabin
Creek Cruisers host the car show. the lron Freedom Motorcycle Club host the
motorcycle show, the Snomads snowmobile club host the beer garden. Our
partnership wiih the Easton School enables us to use their parking lot for the
KidZone which is one of our most popular activities during the day of celebrating.

donation of our ads, Kittitas County Chamber of Commerce for iheir supporl of
advertising the celebraiion.

Our new website will continue to provide business directory for lodging, food. and
services. The difference will be that the directory will be tagged to a google map and
online tools which make them even more visible through social media and online
search engines. Offering this update mode of search off of our websiie ties the
Memorial Day Celebration directly to resources a traveler might utilize.
We will coniinue to add sponsors and donors to our website to help promote iheir
business. Easton has several campgrounds; State, Federal and private which will
also be added to our website. We are in the process of identifying B&B's, VRBO's.
and Airbnb's that might like lo have additional exposure through our website.
As we become more familiar with posting on FB and lnstagram, we will have the
ability to tag and / or promote our lodging facilities.
We've found that lodging facilities and our businesses like having the postcards. or
smal! cards on our event. We will continue to use those and rnclude a eR code that
links back io our website and the lodging resources we have available.
We have found that people like to look at our YouTube on the parade. see a list of
parade pafiicipants and Street Fair vendors. This information and lodging help
attract visitors, in turn promottng overrright stays.

5l Future Plans
Please explain what plans exist to allow this project to become self-sustaining. Include any plans for ticket sales,
event sponsors, and other cost-recovery models.
Future Plans*We continue to look for ways to help sustain our celebration. Each year we have
been able to increase our sponsorship, we obtained a gambling license to sell more
raffle tickets and ask for donations to support ihe costs of the celebration. We work
hard lo seek additional funding to not only support this impofiant event. but to meet
the rising costs associated with hosting events- For example. this year our budget
includes additional costs associated with COVID to ensure we are offering a safe
celebration. We will work hard to increase sales of our successful raffles that we
hold and seeking sponsors and donors in support of the celebration. We are also
seeking additional funding from different sources such as the Suncadia Fund for
Enhancement.
Our committee works hard to identify additional ways to cover the expenses that are
incurred for the Memorial Day Celebration. We now have a gamblinq license which
will enable us to do additional raffles throughout the year.

We are a community that is learning how to adapt and plan for safe gatherings. We
are meeting and planning a safe and fun Memorial Day Celebration. At this time,
those plans include a 2019 style of celebration. Parade, Street Fair. car and
motorcycle show, KidZone and maybe more. As we work to plan a "normal"
celebration, we are keeping our minds open to the potential of needing to adapt
should there be restriction due to health concerns. We've learned a lot about

Please explain.
Past overnight stay data was collected through direct count and informal survey. We
go prior to the event and ask local lodging facilities to share the number of guests
that they will be registering. The direct count comes fiom those lodging
establishments and RV facilities that follow through with their lodging reporl. We
combine this with an informal survey result of 10% esiimated overnight stays for
those facilities that did not report.
This year we plan to add a QR code to our event material which will include the
option for visitors to share where they are staying overnight, and zip code io indicate
where they are traveling from.
