Hi all,</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small">
Since our listserve works again, here is an email I received this week. Steve phoned and we spoke, and I asked him to send his request via email. I think most of you have heard of this request, it came to us shortly before last fourth of July. There was interest
from our members, but of course there will be questions about insurance, fees, etc. As I recall, Ray said he would manage or take on Park events. Can everyone take a look at his email I copied below, and be ready to discuss here and at our next meeting?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small">
Thanks,</div>

<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Hi Donna,</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">From 2000 to 2017 I was involved in creating an managing the Mendocino Street Fair on Heider Field.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Since the Mendo County Planning Dept with the blessings of the board of sups raised our fees to an unaffordable amount we cancelled the fairs in 2018</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Our goal in the fair always was two fold.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">1. to provide an affordable venue for local craftspeople</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">2. to give all excess earnings to a non profit.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">We were able to meet these goals each and every year.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">We are now at an impass where we do not have a venue for our fairs.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">We are interested in pairing with Rotary to have street fairs at Rotary park.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">We are very open to the number of fairs and dates of the fairs.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Perhaps one fair this year would be a good beginning on July 4. If the show goes well then we could think about expanding to more in future years.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Our booth fees had always been at most $40 for a one day show plus craftspeople donated an additional 10% of sales for sales over $400. This could be adjusted.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">My main concern is exactly where the booths would be located and access to the booths for unloading and </font> <font size="2" face="Arial" class="">loading for the shows.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">A porta poty is necessary.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">I can supply you with any other info as needed 937-4866.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Hopefully we can get this all organized before 2/15 as I will then be out of town for about 4 weeks. Time is needed to get craftspeople on board.</font></div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class=""></font> </div>
<div class=""><font size="2" face="Arial" class="">Hope to hear from you soon.</font></div>
