RECITALS:

WHEREAS, COUNTY and SHERIFF desire to continue to protect the safety, health and welfare of
those persons affected by such concerts or events, including without limitation, patrons and nearby
residents;
WHEREAS, LEGENDS desires to continue to serve alcoholic beverages at the General Store, Cliff
House, Plaza Lounge, Vista Bar, Box Seat Service, House Right Deck, View Bar and VIP facilities, as well as
beer and wine at concession stands, beer gardens, kiosks and carts. Alcoholic beverages will also be served
from staff operating from a dedicated service station to serve adult patrons attending concerts that are
seated in luxury boxes at the Gorge Amphitheatre, in Grant County, Washington;
WHEREAS, the parties desire to continue to work together to properly regulate consumption of
beer and wine by adults seated in AMPHITHEATRE luxury boxes, general admission and reserved seating
areas; provided local law enforcement believes that adequate security and conditions are in place to
comply with an approved security plan and a SHERIFF -approved Darkened House Plan (see SECTION V(e)).
The addendum and plan contain conditions and actions to be taken by LEGENDS to prevent
overconsumption of alcohol by adult patrons and prevent minors from obtaining or possessing alcohol by
direct purchase or secondary transfer;
WHEREAS, LEGENDS, the food and beverage concessionaire at the AMPHITHEATER, must comply
with state liquor laws and regulations of the WSLCB as holder of a Sports and Entertainment Liquor License
(No.077969-4T) authorizing alcoholic beverages to be sold and consumed at the AMPHITHEATER as well
as the holders of separate grocery store licenses at the General Store, Camp Store and Pivot Store; and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to record the terms and local conditions that supplement the above
referenced liquor license, by setting forth the guidelines for alcoholic beverage sales and consumption.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and
valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:
I. PREVENTING THE SALE, SERVICE & CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES TO PERSONS UNDER
THE AGE OF 21
a. LEGENDS' policy is to ask for and check all patrons' IDs (regardless of how old they appear)
each time that they order an alcoholic beverage (even if the patron possesses a wristband in accordance
with Subsection 1. b below.
b. For events with a primary demographic of 21 years of age or less ("21 and under events"),
patrons must have a wristband to purchase an alcoholic beverage. For 21 and under events, wristbands
will only be issued to patrons who provide acceptable identification which verifies they are of legal age to
consume alcohol in Washington State. Wristbands will be affixed by LEGENDS staff to ensure they cannot
be transferred in any way. The color/design of said wristbands will vary across these younger demographic
events to avoid duplication. All patrons entering all alcoholic beverage pouring lines will be checked by
servers to determine whether they possess "drinking age verified" wristbands. The wristbands will aid
venue staff in identifying patrons that are consuming alcohol within the confines of the AMPHITHEATRE.
Providers of age verification wristbands and security staff are centrally located throughout the venue to
facilitate access by patrons wanting to purchase alcohol. Staff over the age of 21, who have had server
education and, at a minimum MAST training, will adequately staff each of these stations.
C. If staff observes a guest who appears to be of questionable age that is in possession of or
is consuming an alcoholic beverage, staff will request identification from that guest. If the guest is unable
to produce an acceptable form of identification verifying their age, the guest will be turned over to security
and security will contact the local police department for resolution.
d. Alcohol servers, monitors, spotters and security staff will be instructed to watch for the
transfer of alcohol from one patron to another. Any person furnishing alcohol to a minor and any minor
in possession of alcohol will be removed from the show, the guest will be turned over to security and
security will contact the local police department for resolution.
B. Staff will accept only the below forms of current identification which have been identified
as "acceptable" by the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board. If the identification document has
an expiration date, a person may not use the document after the expiration date to verify his or her age.
i. Driver's license, instruction permit, or identification card of any state, or province
of Canada, from a U.S. territory or the District of Columbia, or "identicard" issued by the Washington State
Department of Licensing per RCW 46.20.117;
ii. United States Armed Forces identification card issued to active duty, reserve, and
retired personnel and the personnel's dependents, which may include an embedded, digital signature in
lieu of a visible signature;
iii. Passport, passport card or NEXUS card,-
iv.
ard;
iv. Merchant Marine identification card issued by the United States Coast Guard; and
V. Enrollment card issued by the governing authority of a federally recognized Indian
tribe located in Washington, if the enrollment card incorporates security features comparable to those
implemented by the department of licensing for Washington driver's licenses.
II. PREVENTING THE SALE TO, CONSUMPTION OR POSSESSION OF ALCHOLIC BEVERAGES BY ANY
PERSON WHO APPEARS TO BE INTOXICATED
a. Staff will refuse to sell an alcoholic beverage to any person who appears to be intoxicated.
b. If any guest who appears to be intoxicated is seen in the possession of an alcoholic
beverage, staff will take the appropriate measures to remove the alcoholic beverage from the guest and
notify security who will contact the local police for resolution.
C. Guests who appear intoxicated and do not cooperate with staff will be escorted from the
Gorge. Unless the guest is with another person who is not intoxicated and is able to drive, staff will make
sure the guest leaves in a taxi or will contact security, who will contact the local police department for
resolution.
Ill. TRAINING PROVIDED TO STAFF WHO SERVE, REGULATE, OR SUPERVISE THE SERVICE OF
ALCOHOL AND EVENT STAFFING
a. The Gorge has 2 staff persons who are full-time employees who will be directly involved
in the sale, service and supervision of alcoholic beverages. These employees all go through TEAM/TIPS,
Washington State Alcohol service training programs as well as Mandatory Alcohol Server Training (MAST)
and hold valid server permits.
b. In addition, the Gorge will employ up to 300 part-time or seasonal persons who will have
direct, face-to-face contact with the guests at the Gorge facility, and who will be MAST trained, if any of
their responsibilities include the sale and service of alcohol or if they have access to the concession
operations. Also, the Gorge employs security staff and utilizes non-profit groups to supplement alcohol
service staff, all of which go through TEAM/TIPS, Washington State alcohol service training programs,
MAST Training and hold valid server permits.
C. The Gorge currently has seating for approximately 27,500 guests.
d. The ratio of alcoholic service staff and security staff to guest/audience will be no less than
1 to 50. Staffing may be adjusted upward based on type of event and expected demographic (example
younger versus older crowd) based on Live Nation, Sheriff and Legends experience and expertise.
As with the staff, the POS numbers also vary per event. The ratio of POS to guest/audience
members is 1:65 for single night events (max capacity: 22,000) and 1:80 for festivals (max capacity:
27,500). At a sold -out single night concert or cultural event with 22,000 people, there would be 338 POS
open with a corresponding minimum staff of 440 persons. At a sold -out festival with 27,500 people, there
would be 343 POS open with a corresponding minimum staffing number of 550 persons. The minimum
for a main concert event is 60 POS.
IV. POLICY IN LIMITING ALCOHOL SALES AND SERVICE PER PERSON PER TRANSACTION
a. To ensure alcoholic beverages are served in a safe, responsible and controlled manner. It
is the policy of the Gorge to limit the sale and service of alcoholic beverages to two servings per person
