RE: Admissions Tax- Yakima River Canyon Marathon
Board Members:
The Board of County Commissioners received a special event application submitted by Frank
Purdy of the Yakima Hard Core Runners Club for the Yakima River Canyon Marathon.
The Treasurer's office is happy to recommend approval of this event. This event is for benefit of
a non-profit organization, making it exempt from the remission of admissions tax. The Yakima
Hard Core Runners Club has an excellent history of providing us documentation of their
nonprofit status.
Ifthere are any questions, please contact the Treasurer's office.
