Um, uh, Quinn came to us and the chamber and 12 00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:04,560 asked if we would be interested in co-sponsoring Calaphoria to help promote 13 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:09,840 the Kingsburg Chamber of Commerce downtown area, Kingsburg Swedish 14 00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:16,639 Festival. It's a cost of $500. He's doing reals, posts, and he is info 15 00:06:13,919 --> 00:06:22,479 sharing with Quinn. So there's current and last year's and it's a $500 cost and 16 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:27,199 the Chamber of Commerce asked if we would cost share of 250 each. So that's 17 00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:32,720 why we're meeting.

But if we're paying for it, I love like yesterday's content. Can 27 00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:11,919 we steer them in that direction of generic downtown cute charm? come to the 28 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:16,319 event. >> Yes, that's the main goal of this and uh 29 00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:21,280 the discussion of representing folks that had not had current bid dues was 30 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,560 addressed with them as well and Quinn is aware of that and so they are 31 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:27,919 collaborating. So it is going to be mainly to promote Kingsburg. 32 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,520 » Yeah. >> And the festival. It's not a business 33 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:35,919 content as far as I know. >> Perfect. Yeah, cuz we cannot use our 34 00:07:33,599 --> 00:07:39,520 money to promote certain businesses. We want to promote all business downtown. 35 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:43,520 » That sounds great. Yesterday's was perfect example. 36 00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:46,960 » I will uh reach out to Quinn after this and just to reinforce that. But I know 37 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:51,440 that was a discussion that we had. That's a discussion you folks had as 38 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:54,720 well, the chamber. Correct. Yes. Okay.

Lauren Nickel, 48 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,680 Kingsburg District Chamber of Commerce. On behalf of the board of directors, and 49 00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:36,640 myself, thank you for being willing to co share this with us. We've appreciated 50 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:40,880 the partnership. Whenever we can collaborate to use our resources to 51 00:08:38,479 --> 00:08:44,240 elevate the profile of this festival, I think we're doing good uh for the 52 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:48,560 businesses in the downtown community and also for the broader industry of the 53 00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:54,160 city. Uh really good use of our dollars to get good content marketing out to 54 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:58,480 breach our own containment and do that. We have a limited budget with this 55 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:02,560 festival. So to be able to cost share this item with an influencer that we 56 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:06,399 have an existing relationship with through the bid is a really great 57 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:10,160 partnership uh opportunity for us. So thanks to the bid, thanks to Quinn, and 58 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:13,600 thanks to Cal Euphoria. Can't wait to be with you guys this weekend. It's going 59 00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:17,839 to be the best yet. >> Thank you. All right.
