• Advertising – we will need a newspaper article and ad. Also could go in the Home Town News. We should utilize Facebook to spread the word. We need to get a count of signs so we can determine if we need more.
• Ann Fisher-Bale suggested that we look at other activities we could have at the event. Dave Stockton noted that he has seen wooden items for wine bottles (holders, etc) at the Lockport Community Market. It was suggested we look into this vendor when the market opens for the season and/or others that would be a good fit with our event.
• Ann Busch was concerned about eliminating a tent. It was decided we should keep the two tents.
