I like the name, it will probably be Mother’s Day weekend so that might encourage people to buy gifts at the festival.
Just because I had the time, I created this below.

The title for Mayfest will evoke a sense of history.

May 9th looks like a good date. And if including the city as a sponsor will get us insured I say include them. I like the title.

The last day of school in Lewis County is May 19th and graduation is May 16th. We had decided we wanted to have the festival while school is in session.. How do you feel about Saturday May 9th? I have checked online and so far there are no festivals or events on that day. Please get back to me on your thoughts since we cannot plan anything until we know what date we want to settle on.
Also, I spoke with Joe Billman today. He checked with the city attorney and the only way we can utilize their insurance, and do not have to purchase our own, is if they are listed as one of the event sponsors along with the Chamber. Joni
