Trip: Spring Craft Fair

Had a lot of fun being there with my Tupperware and meeting all the other vendors. Next time it would be nice to see more outside people come and shop. Thanks for the opportunity

The craft fair had very little foot traffic. I had $0 sales. We tried to convince people to put signs in Meridian, but the only sign was directly in front of Community Center.

I would love to come to future events to helps support your organization. Although not heavily trafficked with customers, I did enjoy myself (even though the room was very cold). For future events, I think more and larger/easily readable signage is needed, especially at major roads (I didn’t see any signs at Meridian/161) and placing them a few days early helps people know an event is happening soon vs just day of so they can plan. With the other events happening at MVCC, you should be able to get the list of vendors that come to those so you can invite them to have more people. I found out about your event from someone that does exercise classes there, otherwise I would not have known to sign up. There are also a lot of vendor pages on Facebook you can post to. I loved the raffle tickets and they were priced well. The signs if what was being raffled was a very nice touch, especially since I had just given you my items and you made a nice sign quickly. I wasn’t sure if this was an option before I came (maybe I missed it?) so if you didn’t, I recommend suggesting a raffle donation or asking for a small donation when people sign up. Many vendors are happy to do this, I’ve found. The location is a pretty good one and as you continue having events, you can fit so many more vendors in that room and more folks will definitely come. Thank you for having this event and I look forward to future ones!

We had a wonderful time with Sara and Taylor! They were very knowledgeable and worked so well with the youth on the trip!! They really elevated the experience, and I could not imagine going to Mt. Rainier without their expertise.

Trip: Burke Museum Field Trip

Malachi and Melody really enjoyed this trip. Malachi said he saw something like a wholly mammoth then Godzilla. He went on a cool kayak and saw low end of the totem poll. He saw some cool fungi. And enjoyed the smell of hazelnut and huckleberry. It was also informative getting to learn about how much garbage is on the earth.
