RE: Ephrata Chamber of Commerce 113th Sage-N-Sun - June 13-14
Grant County Commissioners,
The Sage-N-Sun Festival Committee is thrilled to be organizing another exciting event for the
113th Sage-N-Sun Festival. This year, we are excited to welcome Altered 90's as our Friday
night headliner. Saturday's entertainment will feature performances by The Funk, Genevieve,
and will conclude with Copper Mountain Band as our Saturday night headliner.
In partnership with the City of Ephrata Parks & Recreation, we are adding a 3-on-3 basketball
tournament to the festival, which will take place on the surrounding city streets.
We respectfully request permission to utilize C Street and Division Street, as we have in
previous years. Additionally, we would like to relocate the Beer Garden to the lawn on the north
side of the Courthouse, allowing us to better utilize the power supply in the South Parking Lot
for vendors. Please note that no trailers or trucks will be placed on the lawn only self -standing
fencing will be used. All necessary permits have been applied for, including our Liquor Special
Occasion Permit, which will be processed by March 31st.
As in previous years, we also request access to the surrounding Courthouse parking lots (south
and north sides), as well as Lots E & F and the new county building lot (Northrup's) from Friday,
June 13th, through Sunday morning, June 15th, with cleanup completed by 11:00 AM.
Furthermore, we kindly request access to Courthouse power during the following hours:
• Friday, June 13th: 6:00 AM — 12:00 AM
• Saturday, June 14th: 8:00 AM — 12:00 AM
Additionally, we request the use of the water source on the south side of the Courthouse for our
Kids Zone.
The Ephrata Chamber of Commerce is also hosting the Youth Parade on June 12th and would
like to use the Courthouse lawn to serve free ice cream to parade participants.
We are eager to continue growing this event and appreciate the support of Grant County in
making it a success. Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to working together
to make this year's festival the best one yet!
Sincerely,
Britney MacLeod
Ephrata Chamber of Commerce
