APPEARANCES – Ms. Angela Conley, Coordinator, Main Street Market Wrap-up <br /> <br /> Ms. Conley shared that this event was very successful for the first year. She received many inquiries <br />on the Facebook page regarding if the vendors rotated and what types of food where being provided. <br />Many comments were made to have more vendors, but have them rotate. She mentioned that the <br />committee may consider charging a smaller vendor space fee for 2022. In addition, to keep the interest <br />of the public, possibly adding weekly themes such as kids’ night, pet night, ladies night, etc. and change <br />the hours from 5 – 7 p.m. to 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Also, the possibility of providing a passport to patrons <br />who would then have to have all vendors stamp, they could enter their completed passport for a drawing <br />at the end of the evening with winners being announced at the beginning of the ski show. She also <br />suggested that additional volunteers were needed to assist in the coordination of the event with maybe <br />high school groups, church groups, etc. so that it is not all left on a few individuals. Ms. Conley <br />suggested a flyer that could be placed at all businesses, social media and the City’s web site listing all <br />of the upcoming events for the year would be an added addition to marketing all of the events hosted by <br />the City and a great promotional tool. <br /> <br />IV.
