ITEM SUMMARY:
Food Fest is scheduled to take place on Saturday, August 27. Food Fest has typically taken place from
11:00am to 3:00pm. We request that the time of the event change to 4:00pm to 8:00pm. After feedback and
research we strongly believe that the event will have a bigger turn out with this proposed change.
Cooler temperatures in the early evening hours
Attendee spending to increase due to dinner hours versus lunch
Attendees likely to stay longer since it is an evening event
Attendees likely to come with more family and friends since it is an evening event
More vendor interest in the evening
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Recommend updates to event as proposed.
