Participation Questions

A few details to help you take the first step.

Does sending an email register me for an event?

No. An email expresses interest or starts a conversation. Registration, approval, and any applicable requirements must be confirmed separately with the committee.

Can I help if I am available for only a short time?

Tell us when you are available and what you would be comfortable doing. Specific roles and time commitments have not yet been finalized, so we cannot promise a particular assignment.

Are vendor spaces and prices available yet?

Vendor space availability, fees, setup arrangements, and participation requirements have not yet been finalized. Email the committee to introduce your proposed offering.

Are electricity and water available for vendors?

Utility availability has not been confirmed. Include any electrical, water, or other setup needs in your inquiry. Do not assume those services will be available.

Does sponsorship include a vendor booth or parade entry?

The published sponsorship packages describe recognition benefits. They do not list a vendor booth or parade entry as an included benefit. Please discuss participation arrangements separately with the committee.
