2021 Lodging Tax Fund Non-Event Application

City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 2
Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your tourism-related operation/facility.
Answer: The mission of the Dream Playground Foundation (DPF) is to serve the visiting and local
children of our community with a safe place to play, exercise, and have wholesome outdoor
entertainment, regardless of economic status. The playground is an important visual element and
amenity for visitors to Port Angeles and Olympic National Park. In September of 2002, the playground
was built over five days by more than 2,000 volunteers. The wooden structure was one of the largest
volunteer projects in the City’s history. In 2009 an 800 square foot pavilion was constructed adjacent to
the playground. We are hopeful that a rebuild provides both a renewal of post-pandemic community
spirt and engagement, as well as a signal to visitors that Port Angeles is open for business and
welcomes families to come, stay, and play. Erickson Playfields have also suffered some reputational
decline, and it is extremely important that visitors see it as clean, wholesome, renewed, and
welcoming.
After 19 years, a community re-build of the 12,000 square-foot community playground located at
Erickson Playfields in Port Angeles (on Race Street) will replace the current aging structure. Total cost
to re-build the playground is approximately $525,000. Seed, granted, and donated funds of $400,000
exist, an experienced, well-established board of directors is in place, and we have completed site
evaluation and drawings, including a detailed cost analysis. A design and construction firm has also
been selected and has provided initial architectural plans. The design is based on ideas gathered
from our elementary school children, and construction will be largely performed by volunteers, much
like the original build. Additional funds will be raised through grants and fundraising throughout the
community. The new playground will include a zip line, hurricane spinner, swings, climbing net,
playhouse, bridge, obstacle course, and one of the most requested features by our community, a solid,
wheelchair-accessible rubber play surface. The playground incorporates educational elements such as
a musical area, and art from local native tribes. Estimated completion is the Summer of 2021.
2. Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism activity in Port
Angeles.
Answer: The Dream Playground is centrally located in Port Angeles and serves the community,
surrounding area, and visitors from all over the world. It is central to the ‘between time’ that visiting
families need to fill. This use is borne out by the many reviews and direct feedback from visitors. The
playground routinely receives top ratings from tourism visitors and receives excellent reviews, making
it a key promotional attraction when doing searches about visiting Port Angeles. Parents, caregivers,
tribes, and organizations also bring children from Neah Bay, Forks, Sequim, and Port Townsend, as it is
the only facility of its type in the area. Vacationers from neighboring areas and around the region
visit the playground as a place to play and exercise. Additionally, the playground is one of the first
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 4
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 3
things people see as the come through the Port Angeles area, especially visitors going to the National
Park or using Civic Field.
3. If you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing differently this year? If
this is your first-time requesting funding, what is your reason for the request?
Answer:
Lodging tax funds were received in 2020, and a planned community build was scheduled for August
2020. This grant request is intended to help cover the most-requested improvement: play surface,
which comprises about 40% of the total project cost. COVID-19 and state-required health restrictions
on gatherings required both the closure of community playgrounds in Port Angeles and postponement
into 2021 for our planned community build.
The amount of lodging tax requested previously was $100,000, and due to budget constraints
in the program, we were awarded $50,000, which the foundation was very grateful to receive. While
we have made major progress and are about 75% toward the reconstruction funding goal, our ability
to fundraise locally between January and June 2020 was essentially cut off. While we have had some
success in 2020, several large grants that we did apply for from private foundations were not awarded.
Those grants looked to be extremely promising, and we receive excellent feedback from grantors, but
most foundations appropriately pivoted almost entirely to human services and pandemic-related relief.
We have shifted to local, smaller-dollar individual sales of pavers and engraved pickets, as well as
sponsorship of components, but we need a few larger grants to achieve the build cost of $525,000.
4. Describe the prior success of your operation/facility in attracting tourists. How do you define
success?
Answer:
The Dream Playground is a proven attraction to out-of-town guests. It is one of the more
common referral destinations for the Chamber of Commerce to make for visitors with children. It is
literally full of visiting families during peak visiting season at Olympic National Park. We also receive
reviews, emails, and excellent ratings on social media from out of town visitors, many of whom say
they specifically choose to come back to Port Angeles because their children want to play on our Dream
Playground again.
5. Describe you target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Answer:
The playground serves visitors to the community, children in Port Angeles (estimated 3,700 children
under 18), and children in the surrounding region. The new playground will have dedicated areas
specific to children ages 2-5 and 5-12, with a central seating area for parents. Although the number of
children that utilize the playground is difficult to determine, the playground is heavily utilized with
active daily use, and tourism-related visits likely number in the low thousands annually, and in the low
tens of thousands with all user visits. The playground sees visitors from across the state and the world,
as the area is home to Olympic National Park.

6. Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
Answer:
The current Dream Playground is a fixture that is used by tourists year around. Lodging Tax funds will
enable the DPF to provide a new and iconic structure that will continue to provide a place for tourists
and families to use over the next 30-plus years. Surrounding the playground is Civic Field, tennis courts,
a skate park, and a calisthenic park. In 2021, there is also an effort in the community to put in a Bike
“Pump Track” as well. This centralized park in Port Angeles will be heavily used by not only locals but
tourists.
7. Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and businesses
located in the City of Port Angeles.
Answer:
Erickson Playfield is more of a host to tourists because of the elements it provides. It is heavily used
by tourists to have picnics and bring food to the facility while their children play. For example, I
visited the park prior to closure last year conversed with a couple from Seattle who frequently stay in a
hotel here while visiting and the first thing they do is bring the kids to the playground. I have a similar
experience most times while inspecting or helping at the playground
8. Are you applying for Lodging Tax funds from another jurisdiction? Check the appropriate box
(Yes☐or No☒)? If yes, list the other jurisdiction(s) and amount(s) requested.
Answer:
9. What is the overall budget for your operation/facility? What percent of the budget are you
requesting from Port Angeles Lodging Tax Fund? What percentage of your budget is related to
tourism and marketing activities?
Answer:
The Overall budget for the new “Generation II Dream Playground” is $525,000, which has crept up
substantially because of COVID-19 -related delays. If our second-round request is granted, we would
receive 19% of the overall budget from Lodging Tax Funds. This grant would be used for the most
important element: the play surface. As a nonprofit, we have a very limited budget from marketing
activities, but do host a recently updated website, produce visitor rack cards for lodging and Visitor
Center use, and promote via social media frequently. We are also careful to work with the City and the
County to coordinate maintenance and upkeep with important festival or tourism events. To limit the
budget, we are attempting to source materials and in-kind services now to avoid any additional cost
increases, and using donated services if humanly possible. In fact, we ordered all play equipment in
late 2020 to save approximately 12% on that six-figure purchase versus waiting until 2021. Over the
last 19 years, the DPF has been fundraising and investing for the second generation playground and
has seed money of $130,000. The City of Port Angeles also wants to invest in the playground and
placed funds ($110,000) in the 2020 budget, which were used toward the above-mentioned
equipment. Service clubs will also be donating a significant amount of funds as well and have
donated upwards of $60,000 so far. We have also had several families and sponsors contribute. With
all funds and public allocations, we sit at approximately 75% of our fundraising goal.

10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not
available or recommended? How is Lodging Tax funding essential to the success of your proposal?
Answer:
Not receiving Lodging Tax Funding could push the project into 2022. The decision was made to close
the playground in December 2020 due to escalating maintenance issues, as well as COVID-19. Lack
of funding could mean no Dream Playground for another year. Currently we plan to be one of the
first and most inspiring community engagement/togetherness events of 2021, with a planned build this
summer depending on Health Department guidance.
11. How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816?
Please be specific and cite code directly.
Answer:
RCW 67.28.1816
Lodging tax—Tourism promotion.
(1) Lodging tax revenues under this chapter may be used, directly by any municipality
or indirectly through a convention and visitors bureau or destination marketing organization
for:
(a) Tourism marketing;
(b) The marketing and operations of special events and festivals designed to attract
tourists;
(c) Supporting the operations and capital expenditures of tourism-related facilities
owned or operated by a municipality or a public facilities district created under
chapters 35.57 and 36.100 RCW; or
-The Playground is an important part of attracting young families here for recreation,
sports events, jamborees, and festivals. It is listed on TripAdvisor.com, Google,
Facebook, and Yelp, and has many Google reviews from out-of-town visitors looking
for destination playgrounds. A common theme from an actual online review in 2020
is:
“This is possibly the coolest park I've ever taken my kids to. It's huge and there's tons to do. We travel quite a
bit and we usually hit parks in whatever town we're in. This is one of the best.”
It is also a frequent referral to visitors by the Port Angeles Chamber of
Commerce.

2021 Lodging Tax Fund Non-Event Application
This application is for non-event related proposals only.

City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 2
Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your tourism-related operation/facility.
“BMX, an abbreviation for bicycle motocross or bike motocross, is a cycle sport performed on BMX bikes,
either in competitive BMX racing or freestyle BMX, or else in general on- or off-road recreation.”
Lincoln Park BMX is a USABMX-sanctioned track, located on City of Port Angeles property and solely
maintained by volunteers. Historically, the track has been open May through early October every year. The
hope is to increase this; with changes in the lighting and track surface, we hope to be open until November
each year.
Throughout the season, there are 1-2 practices and 2-3 races per week. Even with COVID in 2020, the track
was open 51 times, with 35 practices and 16 races. Riders who race BMX will travel for two main reasons:
great competition and great facilities. This track now offers both—for single-point races and for larger events.
In 2020, we lost our State Qualifier and Gold Cup Qualifier due to COVID costing the track.
In 2021, the track bouncing back and is hosting a State Qualifier and a Gold Cup Qualifying race. The 2020
Washington State Finals location is yet to be determined but has been at Lincoln Park BMX in 2018 and 2019.
2. Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism activity in Port
Angeles.
USABMX has more than 70,000 members, who can ride at any of its 370 sanctioned tracks across the USA
and Canada. BMX as a sport is unique in that the whole family can participate; families travel and race
together. Providing better facilities promotes better competition. Racers come from all over Washington to
Port Angeles on a weekly basis and for the larger races. The track has structured its larger races to start
earlier, giving racers and their families more incentive to arrive the day before the race, rather than traveling
the day of the race, resulting in more people staying in Port Angeles longer.
Lincoln Park BMX has created a positive atmosphere with great facilities and growing local rider participation.
As a result, riders come from all over to race in Port Angeles. More racers are also finding other bike activities
in Port Angeles, from Dry Hill and NW Cup to the Colville MTB Trails and the Olympic Discovery Trail. The
added possibility of a world-class pump track means that this area is quickly becoming a destination for bike
enthusiasts and will bring more racers to our area.
Another positive outcome is that Lincoln Park BMX riders are expanding into other bike disciplines. At least
10 local BMX riders also race on the NW Cup circuit, which has caught the attention of other BMX riders who
want to try downhill MTB racing. Some riders are also participating in the recently formed North Olympic
Mountain Bike Team. Each sport adds to their growth; expanding their interests only makes them better
riders.
One of Lincoln Park BMX’s favorite sayings is “Build it- build it well and people will come”. The BMX track and
Dry Hill are popular, not because of flyers, but because of the facilities they have become.
3. If you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing differently this year? If this
is your first-time requesting funding, what is your reason for the request?
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 16
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 3
Yes- Lincoln Park BMX Association has received City of Port Angeles Lodging Tax Funds before in the total
amount of $161,154.00. With the grant funds we have received, we have brought $1,375,765 i to the
community (854% Return on the investment). With these funds, we were able to rebuild our starting hill and
install a state-of-the-art safety gate as well as add in new lighting that allows the track to stay open longer
in the season; as the days get shorter and daylight doesn’t last as late in the evenings, those lights give the
track the ability to still function as weather allows hosting evening practices and races.
Also attached is our income-expense report ii for 2020.
4. Describe the prior success of your operation/facility in attracting tourists. How do you define
success?
Success in BMX = Riders = Spectators!
Lincoln Park BMX Association gained management of the BMX track in Port Angeles in April 2017. The BMX
track in Port Angeles has been operating since the 1980s. The track is open every year from May through
October. We have seen positive growth every year from local and out-of-town racers, even in 2020 with
COVID restrictions.
Since new management assumed track operations, Lincoln Park BMX has increased rider participation by
300% over the past years. The motto “Build It and They Will Come” is a totally true statement! The track’s
new starting hill and gate have drawn local and out-of-town riders to compete at the track on a weekly
basis. The fence project and new approach into the track, completed in 2019, was noticed by many who
traveled to race in Port Angeles. Now with lights the track was able to run into November for the first time.
The improvements have drawn interest from riders around the Pacific Northwest, as well as recognition
from USABMX that the track is much improved and can handle larger races. As the local rider base has
grown, they are now proud of their home track, and it shows! When they travel off the Olympic Peninsula
to race, they demonstrate their home-track pride and are happy to invite others to come check it out!
Volunteers do everything at Lincoln Park BMX. There are no paid employees. Volunteers do it all: paint,
mow the grass, work on the track, run races and skills clinics, maintain the facilities and the fleet of 50 track
bikes, handle registration and snack shack operations, and more, freeing up City of Port Angeles Parks &
Rec staff and resources to focus on other facilities. Lincoln Park BMX’s Executive Board is very proud of the
track’s volunteers. They do a lot for our community!
USABMX estimates 3.2 spectators travel with each racer. As the track hosts larger races, and over multiple
days, racers and spectators alike come to participate. The track has seen more riders visit and stay longer:
one night a few years ago has turned into two or three. The track expects this continue with facilities
improvements.
Our 2020 numbers were with COVID restrictions with no State or Regional Qualifiers and no racing until late
September. We still attracted 18.4% of the riders from out of the area to come to our facility.

Lincoln Park BMX has risen from the #7 track in Washington in 2017 to #3 in 2019, while exceeding state
growth in riders. Port Angeles has the smallest population base of any of the other tracks (Spokane, Port
Orchard, Richland, SeaTac, Sumner, Moses Lake, Walla Walla, Mt. Vernon, Bellingham). BMX in Washington
has grown 10% and 14% across the United States. At the same time, Lincoln Park BMX has seen a 226%
growth. Track volunteers attribute the increase to improvements in facilities and new management. Lincoln
Park BMX volunteers pride themselves on taking care of the facilities, grounds, and everyone within the
BMX community.
5. Describe your target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Lincoln Park BMX’s tourist audience is mainly from the Northwest region (Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and
British Columbia). Riders range in age from two to 70+, male and female, novice to pro. USABMX has more
than 70,000 members, who can ride at any of its 370 sanctioned tracks across the USA and Canada. BMX as
a sport is unique in that the whole family can participate; families travel and race together.
6. Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
The BMX track is popular to riders all over the Northwest, not because of flyers, but because of the facility
it has become.
This year we are looking at applying a glue surface iii to the track dirt. This glue is an acrylic copolymer, which
is mixed with water and sprayed on the riding surface. This glue is then covered with sand and another lay
applied. You apply 5 or 6 layers of the glue and sand building a thick crust to protect the track dirt from
moisture. This allows you to run into wetter weather and allows the track to recover quicker after rain
events. In 2020, we apply the glue to one section to test it- it held up better than all other sections, as we
ran until November 8th. With the lights at the Track, we are no longer limited by darkness and can run later
in the year. At the end of November, USABMX hold the Grands in Tulsa Oklahoma, the riders training for
national points look to train at longer outdoor tracks until the Grands, which we have.
The track will use these funds to continue improving the facility, thereby developing one of the best BMX
tracks in Washington state and the Northwest region, as well as gaining popularity along with attention
from USABMX. In doing so, this attracts larger races, which brings in more riders to the Port Angeles area.
Lincoln Park BMX is the only track on the west side of the state that has both a safety gate and all paved
corners. With the addition of lights, Lincoln Park BMX will be one of only three tracks in Washington to have
lights, paved corners, and a safety gate!
Hosting one three-day race weekend brings an additional 600 to 700 riders just for that weekend. Prior to
new management in 2017, the BMX track in Port Angeles had never hosted a Gold Cup Qualifier (semi-
national qualifier) or the Washington State Finals. Both of those events occurred at Lincoln Park BMX in
2018! Lincoln Park BMX also hosted the Washington State Finals in 2019, and it was one of the largest races
in the past 10 years. In 2021, Lincoln Park BMX is hosting another Gold Cup Qualifier. The Washington State
Finals location is still undecided at this time.
Lincoln Park BMX has a marketing plan that it uses to keep local riders, and especially non-local riders,
engaged and up to date with changes made to the track and our schedule of events.
• Social Media: According to HubSpot, 92% of marketers in 2014 claimed that social media
marketing was important for their business, with 80% indicating their efforts increased traffic to
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 18
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 5
their websites. According to Social Media Examiners, 97% of marketers are currently participating
in social media.
• Online Media—Videographer: As the need to increase our social media presence became clearer,
an opportunity arose to work with local videographer Matt Sagen, from Heart & Passion Films.
This company has led the visual side of many Port Angeles revitalization efforts by creating quality
marketing videos for many local businesses. We are excited to work with Heart & Passion Films
to create up to three 30-second videos showcasing both the athletes and every component that
goes into making Lincoln Park BMX Track a unique racing experience from the moment you drive
into the parking lot until the time you leave. Videos will be circulated through Social Media and
Lincoln Park BMX website. Here is a link to our latest video:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tp7a35jegoih1iz/Lincoln%20Park%20BMX%202019_Promo1_final.
mov?dl=0
• School Flyers: USABMX prints flyers for the track; the track uses this service every year. The track
distributes flyers to local elementary schools to promote Lincoln Park BMX, reiterating USABMX’s
motto: “No child sits on the bench.” The flyers show how BMX is a fun and healthy outdoor activity
for kids.
• Awards & Trophies: Each year Lincoln Park BMX distributes more than 1,000 trophies These
trophies and awards feature logos for Lincoln Park BMX and local businesses. Athletes take
pictures with these awards and post them on social media, and they bring them home and put
them on display where friends and family can see them, thus promoting Lincoln Park BMX (and
Port Angeles) all across the state and the world! Lincoln Park BMX racers have come from all over
the world: In 2018, one racer visited from France and one from Spain, who stayed with a host
family and participated during their exchange program
7. Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and businesses located
in the City of Port Angeles.
There are many ways in which Lincoln Park BMX promotes lodging, restaurants, and local business in the
City of Port Angeles, some of which include:
• Partnerships: The track teams up with local hotels and directs out-of-town riders to book through
them.
• Link sharing: Links to various establishments are featured on the track’s website and in emails
sent by USABMX. Track website: www.usabmx.com/tracks/1251
• Facebook: Facebook posts include links to local businesses.
• Event packets: Event packets are handed out at registration and include listings of lodging,
restaurants, and stores in Port Angeles.
• Prizes: The track partners with local sponsors and awards gift certificates to their establishments
as prizes.
• Summer Series: This weekly race series heavily advertises the sponsoring business on awards and
apparel. The business is frequently mentioned to the crowd during races.
• Banners: Banners are hung around the track to promote all of our local sponsors.
• Trophies: Trophies feature sponsors’ logos.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 19
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 6
• Sponsor Program: The track created a rider sponsor program in which local businesses sponsor
riders. That sponsor’s name follows the rider everywhere they race. Seeing and hearing local
businesses called out at other tracks is a great out-of-town perk.

2021 Lodging Tax Fund Non-Event Application
This application is for non-event related proposals only.

City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 2
Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your tourism-related operation/facility.
This project is to build a new asphalt pump track, with an accessible and inclusive loop at Erickson Playfield
in Port Angeles, Washington. This pump track will be a facility in Port Angeles that provides a free, open-to-
all facility, which will be open all hours and days that the Erickson Park is open, year-round. This project is a
partnership with the City of Port Angeles, Lincoln Park BMX Association, Top-Left Trails Co-op and N-Dub
Productions (NW CUP).
A pump track is a new and trending recreation facility that is expanding in popularity all across the world. A
pump track is a looped series of trails that feature up and down rollers and bermed corners, some made of
dirt and some paved with asphalt. Pump tracks are fun for anything with wheels- skateboards, bikes, scooters
and inline skates. Pump tracks are growing in popularity because they offer safe places for riders to progress
their skills, whether they are brand new to a bike, or skilled riders looking to improve.
A unique aspect to the Port Angeles Pumptrack design is an accessible/inclusive loop. Recreation
infrastructure and new public recreation facilities in Port Angeles must incorporate accessibility and inclusion
as an integral part of the design from the onset. An accessible loop of the Port Angeles Pumptrack has been
designed for manual and electric chair users, and features the same rollers and berms scaled for safe and
fun use by riders in chairs.
Shoreline Dirt Works describes pump tracks on their website as: “Pump tracks are an incredibly flexible
option for communities looking to bring excitement to riders of every age and skill level. Pump tracks are an
eco-friendly, sustainable option for a community looking to build something significant for the future. Our
team builds world-class pump tracks by assessing the spaces that are available and designing the best track
for that exact space.
Communities are able to leverage these pump tracks to draw visitors from far and wide. Day trips turn into
vacations. Vacations turn into relocations. Pump tracks provide safe, fun, healthy options for young people
and can be used as hubs to drive tourism and community activities. An investment in a pump track is an
investment in the future of your community.
One of the major concerns that often faces a community as they look to create attractions and activities is
where to build. The cost as well as the physical spaces available often means that some opportunities are
simply not an option. However, pump tracks can be built almost anywhere. No matter the size, shape, or
slope there are opportunities for pump tracks. We’ve built large-scale community pump tracks as well as
backyard options. So no matter what your community has at their disposal, we can find a way.”
(https://www.shorelinedirtworks.com/pump-tracks/)
2. Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism activity in Port
Angeles.
For the design and build of the Port Angeles Pumptrack, we have partnered with Velosolutions, the premiere
international Pumptrack company. Velosolutions brings name recognition and the opportunity to link into
regional and national competitions hosted specifically on their tracks.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 36
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 3
Riders travel the Country and World specifically to experience these world class Velosolutions pump tracks.
Currently, the closest Velosolutions track is in Bellingham, the only other nearby tracks are in Leavenworth,
WA, Hood River, OR and Nanaimo, BC.
An estimated 3 million visitors travel through the Olympic Peninsula each summer, drawn to Olympic
National Park as well as the amazing variety of outdoor recreation offerings in Clallam County. Many tourists
pass through Port Angeles briefly on their way to Canada. We see in other outdoor recreation communities
(Bend, Oregon and Squamish, Canada for example) that strategic investments in recreation infrastructure,
including community pump tracks, that encourage people to stay longer rather than merely passing through,
and make use, not only of tracks and trails, but also the local economy, through increased accommodations
and spending at restaurants, shops and other businesses.
Creating a year-round bike facility should increase use for all the other events and facilities in town. People
who travel to race the Big Hurt & NW Cup will come early, or stay longer, to ride the pump track. There are
very few places in the Country where you can go skiing, surfing and riding a pump track all in one day. Once
the pump track is useable, our own BMX track will see more riders coming for local races as well as staying
longer for the larger regional and state races in order to spend extra time and enjoy the pump track. Tourists
who come to ride the Olympic Discovery trail, or mountain bikers riding the Colville trails, will check out the
pump track leading to more and longer visits to Port Angeles.
A trail counter installed at a community Pumptrack in Bellingham logged 30,000 visits in one month.
3. If you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing differently this year? If this
is your first-time requesting funding, what is your reason for the request?
Yes- Lincoln Park BMX Association has received City of Port Angeles Lodging Tax Funds before in the total
amounts of $161,154.00i. With the grant funds we have received, we have brought $1,375,765 back to the
community (854% return on the investment).
Our 2019 tax return highlights the strengths of our organization and shows the direct community benefit of
an investment in this project- although LPBMX is a repeat requester, this request represents a unique, one-
time funding request with LPBMX acting as a fiscal agent for a collaboration of bike organizations. None of
this request will go to pay salary or otherwise support LPBMX. 100% of the funds will go to build the Port
Angeles Pumptrack.
Here is a link to our 2019 tax return, should you feel the need to see where our funds go- I just ask two things-
1. Look or request the tax returns of all the other applicants, especially the ones who are not non-profit
organizations and repeat requesters. 2. When you look at the tax returns- see how much is spent on
wages for each organization. LPBMX has spent $0.00 on wages to date.
https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/display_990/820747801/09_2020_prefixes_81-
82%2F820747801_201912_990EZ_2020090217277152
Attached is our Profit-Loss report ii for 2020.
What are we going to do differently is support building another great bike facility in Port Angeles, creating
one more reason for visitors to plan a visit to our community. The best advertising is building a great quality
facility that people enjoy riding that will make them want to return to ride again. One of Lincoln Park BMX’s
favorite sayings is “Build it- build it well and people will come”. The BMX track and Dry Hill are popular, not
because of flyers, but because of the facilities they have become.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 37
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 4
4. Describe the prior success of your operation/facility in attracting tourists. How do you define
success?
By building a facility people will travel and use, just like the BMX Track, just like Dry Hill, just like Colville Bike
Trails.
Lincoln Park BMX has done just that, a large part due to the funding through this Lodging Tax Grant
opportunity. With local donations and grant funding, LPBMX has been able to upgrade our facility as
previously mentioned and that has brought in many more participants, as well as spectators, who in return
spend their hard-earned money in our community. LPBMX gauges their success on not only how many people
attend our facility, but how many of those people stay in the community overnight when doing so. It has
been a strong focus to host events that will bring overnight guests in and give back to our community the
way they have given to us…in our opinion, this is how we know we are being successful and good stewards
of donations and grant funds!
5. Describe your target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Our target tourist audience is cycling enthusiasts and families from across the Pacific Northwest. Although
the total pool of cyclists is hard to quantify, there are 1.5 million cyclists and an estimated 60,000 mountain
bikers in Washington. Pump tracks are destination facilities for cyclists, and in combination with the Olympic
Discovery Trail, Olympic Adventure Trail, Colville Trails, Dry Hill and Lincoln Park BMX track this creates an
attractive recreation hub that invites families to target Clallam County as an ideal, family friendly, biking
destination. The bulk of these visitors are likely to be from the greater Puget Sound area and beyond, which
is far enough away to warrant overnight trips. Bike tourism is an industry that attracts generally higher-
income, family-oriented tourists who look for an area that has multiple options to accommodate a variety of
skills and interests often found within families or groups of friends. See attached letters of support iii from
professional riders- Jill Kintner, Kialani Hines, and Danielle Beecroft who all have ridden in Port Angeles and
come back often.
Shoreline Dirt Works website describes revenue and tourism generated in Squamish: “In 2006, studies
determined that riders spent roughly $2.6 million in Squamish. Fast forward 10 years and that number has
risen to $9.9 million. In 2016 Squamish boasted roughly 25,000 riders which is an incredible data point for a
town with a population of 19,612. 80% of those riders came from outside Squamish. This means that there
are a large number of people that travel to Squamish each year because of the incredible mountain biking
opportunities. Just as important is who these people are.
Bike tourism is an industry that attracts wealthy and generous tourists. They are typically older, in their late
40s or early 50s, are university educated, and make roughly $75k per year. These people have the means to
travel the world and invest in the communities that invest in bringing them there. The quadrupling in revenue
in mountain bike tourism in Squamish happened because the town and province invested in a well-designed
and well-built network of trails that attract people from all over and they don’t come alone.
These well-educated tourists bring their families with them. A well-designed trail system or park will have
something for everyone. There will be jump lines for the gravity inclined and first-timers. There will be trails
that will push both bikes and riders and there will be easy rides that give riders a chance to breathe and to
take a look around. Pump tracks offer young and old alike a chance to improve their skills while getting an
amazing workout and having more fun than should be allowed.” (https://www.shorelinedirtworks.com/the-
social-and-economic-advantages-of-bike-parks/)
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 38
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 5
6. Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
Because it will be built by the international company Velosolutionsiv, the pump track v will be included in
their website https://pumptrack.com/. Meaning, it will join a network of Velosolutions tracks that can host
regional competitions and qualifiers for national and international championships, with Velosolutions and
RedBull. The pump track will benefit from cross promotion with Clallam County’s other well-established
cycling and tourist events and be included in the recreational information developed and distributed through
the Visitor’s bureau. Our reach through Facebook is wide, including the page for the pump track
https://www.facebook.com/PortAngelesPumptrack, where updated information can be found, and
frequently cross-post on a large and active regional page for mountain bikers.
7. Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and businesses located
in the City of Port Angeles.
The pump track will attract recreation enthusiasts year-round and will be an important part of our regional
tourism strategy. Recreation tourists tend to be enthusiasts who participate in more than one outdoor
activity on a single trip. Visitors to the area for winter sports at Hurricane Ridge, or surfing, are also very likely
to have bikes and visit the pump track. Tourists riding the Olympic Discovery trail or racers participating in
the NWCUP, Big Hurt or Lincoln Park BMX races will also likely use the pump track.
While the pump track will be centrally located in Port Angeles, it will attract a demographic who will be
actively seeking adventures in remote and scenic locations, thus needing accommodations and meals
throughout Port Angeles and unincorporated areas of Clallam County during their explorations.
8. Are you applying for Lodging Tax funds from another jurisdiction? Check the appropriate box
(Yes☒or No☐)? If yes, list the other jurisdiction(s) and amount(s) requested.
We applied for the Clallam County Lodging Tax fund requesting $100,000 and received $100,000. The
committee’s words were that this project is this exactly what their funds are for and exactly what Port
Angeles and Clallam County needs; we very much appreciated their concurrence with this project.
9. What is the overall budget for your operation/facility? What percent of the budget are you
requesting from Port Angeles Lodging Tax Fund? What percentage of your budget is related to
tourism and marketing activities?
Budget & estimate for the project is attachedvi.
The Port Angeles Lodging Tax amount represents 14.1% of the total project amount. The project is ranked
#9 vii out of 33 applications for the RCO Grant and the #1 pump track application in the state. Once the State
Budget is approved, we have a high probability of receiving the $350,000 from the RCO grant.
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not available
or recommended? How is Lodging Tax funding essential to the success of your proposal?
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 39
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 6
If we were not successful, we would need to postpone construction as more funding options are researched.
There is the potential to do the project in a phased capacity, however, that would likely increase overall
cost by 10-20%. This approach would be to build the Inclusive loop later than the public portion of the pump
track. This would cut $172,000 out of the cost for this year.
11. How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816?
Please be specific and cite code directly.

To Whom it May Concern
My name is Jill Kintner, I am a professional mountain biker, and also a BMX Olympic Bronze medalist from the 2008
Beijing Games, and would like to write a letter in support of the Pump track project in Port Angeles.
Over the years, I have attended dozens of Pro Downhill events at Dry Hill as part of the NW Cup, and have seen Port
Angeles thrive as one of the best venues in the US, drawing both local and International talent alike. Port Angeles is a
“Bike Town” with amazing trails, good restaurants, beautiful landscape, and now it needs a well thought out skills park for
future generations to prosper on 2 wheels.
In my hometown of Bellingham, WA, I was involved with the local Mtb trail advocacy group – Whatcom County Mountain
Bike Coalition (W.M.B.C.), to help build a local public pump track. I raised a little bit of money myself to get the project
going, and worked with the city council and parks department to ultimately create the first pump track in Bellingham at
Whatcom falls park.
The Whatcom Falls Pump track project has been wildly successful, getting more kids and adults outside and off computer
screens, which was the purpose of the grant we won (No kid left indoors). It brought our community together through
various build days, and also as place to catch up with people and ride. This track offers a safe location to build skills
together, learn, and progress as a group. I honestly am amazed at the progress from the kids in my neighborhood in such
a short time. Some kids would even get up at 6am before school to ride, showing great passion, and you can outwardly
see their confidence grow as humans, which is nice to see.
The trail counter we installed was averaging something like 30,000 visits per month in summer (trips through the gate), in
a space that was previously unused flat lumpy grass. Since the grand opening of WF pump track in spring 2018, two more
pump tracks have been built in different areas of town, and the demand continues. Another big project is approved that
will consider bikers alongside different user groups such as dog owners, parents with small kids, spectators, walkers, etc.
In conclusion, pump tracks are a great boost to any community. You don’t need a membership to ride, any bike will work,
new people show interest in a healthy activity, and it brings a positive interest close to where people live. People will come
from all over to ride a new track, and probably stay to see what else Port Angeles has to offer. It will be amazing!!
I can’t wait to come for a ribbon cutting ceremony and to ride the Port Angeles Pump track when it is all built. Please let
me know if I can do anything more to help.
Sincerely,
3 Time Mountain Bike World Champion
25 Time National champion (5 disciplines)
2 Time Pump Track World Champion
5 Time Queen of Crankworx

(P.S. I have done some Tourism videos for the grand opening for Leavenworth, Whatcom Falls, and also in North
Carolina for Gaston County Pump track.)

Hello City of Port Angeles,
My name is Kialani Hines and I am a professional Mountain Bike Racer. I specialize in
large events like Crankworx, where I took the overall title in ‘Pump Track Racing’ last
year. I was born and raised in Burien, WA where I began racing BMX. I have traveled
around the country racing BMX and raced many times over the years in Port Angeles.
As a professional athlete, I always encourage healthy and fun ways for families and
communities to stay outside and active, especially biking!
As someone who does a lot of traveling specifically for riding bikes, I have been able to
experience a few Velosolution Pump Tracks and been witness to the positive impact
they have on communities. I’ve been to Leavenworth, WA , Temecula, CA , Springdale,
AR and Cambridge, New Zealand. At each of these tracks there was a mutual theme,
kids and families out on bicycles, scooters, skate board..etc. having a great time. One of
the most positive things about Velosolution Pump Tracks is that they do their best at not
excluding different sports. Pump tracks are meant to bring communities together!
Adding a facility such as this in your community will make a huge positive impact. It
gives youth and people of all ages a free way to do something outdoors. It can bring
more profit to your local bike shops or stores that sell any types of wheeled sporting
equipment. In fact, here in San Diego where I now live, they recently had a pump track
open. My local bike shop had never sold a Dirt Jumper Bike which is commonly ridden
on Pump tracks. A week after the park was put in the shop had sold three new bikes to
people who wanted to get into biking because of the park that was put in. Now this
seems small but this is one of many bike shops in SD county that sold 3 bikes in 1 week
from a local park opening, that’s big! Beyond that, Port Angeles in the biking community
is famous for the mountain bike events held at DryHill (one of my favorite places to
ride). It would not just be locals who would love to enjoy such a great experience as a
pump track. There are so many cities in the area that still do not have facilities like this.
It will attract more out of towners to your area who will in turn spend money in your
community.
With pump tracks becoming more popular all around the world, it now is a competitive
event worldwide. Redbull hosts the ‘Redbull Pump Track World Champs’ which is now
an official UCI event held exclusively on Velosolution built tracks! People travel from
near and far to participate in this up and coming event, which is growing each year. This
gives the opportunity for Port Angeles to host a world class event that would draw
people to the community from far and wide.
The beautiful thing about biking is that unlike baseball and soccer you don’t need teams
to do it! There are no try outs and there are no “you didn’t make the team” to detour you
from competing in events like the “Redbull Pump Track World Champs". I grew up an
active kid but didn’t enjoy most team sports. When I found biking it gave me an outlet to
express myself individually. Now I am racing at the top level and competing at races like
"Pump Track World Champs" as my career!
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 47
I am a firm believer that every city should have a pump track available for anyone to
ride. When I was growing up there were not many girls who also loved what I loved.
Now I see Velosolution Pump Tracks changing whole communities! A positive, healthy
way for communities to share the outdoors is absolutely priceless. This is something
that future generations need to stay active and feel connected with their community. I
can’t wait to see how it can positively impact Port Angeles!
Thank you for your time and I wish Port Angeles all the best,
Kialani Hines

To Whom It Might Concern
My name is Danielle Beecroft, I am a professional mountain bike racer from Sydney, Australia. Some of my
achievements in Pumptrack include 1st Velosolutions Redbull Pumptrack Indonesia 2018, 1st Velosolutions
Redbull Pumptrack Indonesia 2019, Australian 2019 Pumptrack Champion and #3rd 2018 Crankwork World
Pumptrack Champion.
I have been racing for many years and have been very lucky to have ridden and seen many different pumptracks
around the world.
I have been to Port Angeles to compete and ride the trails because I love the community and how big the bike
culture is there. You could say bike riding in Port Angeles is in their blood. I personally think a pumptrack in Port
Angeles would be an incredible addition for an already passionate riding community.
A pumptrack will bring opportunity for youth to participate in healthy, outdoor fitness activity and a place to
gain and improve bike skills. It would open up the opportunity to expand the riding community and encourage
support and enthusiasm for biking.
Let’s not forget the amount of people in Port Angeles on skateboards, scooters and inline skates. This pumptrack
would provide a great community environment for them too.
Port Angeles could also host regional, national and international pumptrack competitions attracting visitors and
riders like myself to experience all the other attractions the area has to offer.
I sincerely hope that I will be riding a pumptrack in Port Angeles in the foreseeable future!
Regards,
Danielle Beecroft

Application Questionnaire
1.Describe your tourism-related operation/facility.
Answer:
The Hurricane Ridge Winter Sports Club (HRWSC) is a non-profit volunteer-run organization in the
State of Washington that promotes winter recreation at Hurricane Ridge. We maintain and operate
the ski and snowboard lifts and tubing hill under permit from Olympic National Park (ONP).
The HRWSC focus is on youth winter sports education and recreation and we provide safe and
affordable family recreation on the Olympic Peninsula. Our operation includes an active ski/
snowboard school and ski/snowboard team. We also operate the only tubing hill at The Ridge for
adults and teens. This is a very popular addition to our operation, and we provide all needed
equipment for participation. The tubing run broadens our appeal to the general population even if
you haven’t yet learned to ski or snowboard.
The Hurricane Ridge Ski and Snowboard Area is a fantastic small winter sports area with excellent
terrain, great service and a warm community feel, all attributes that tourists pursue.
2.Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism
activity in Port Angeles.
Answer:
HRWSC is well positioned to promote off season or winter visitation to our area as we operate
weekends and holiday Mondays from December through March and daily during Christmas break.
In addition, we promote unique events during our operating days that include the Citizen Races in
association with our ski team, the Spring Carnival and the Snow Skate event. Due to ONP and
Hurricane Ridge’s international appeal we have riders that visit us from international destinations
including Europe.
We lost 2 operating weekends in March due to COVID and despite this we increased our numbers
significantly. We finished the 2019/2020 winter season with 2,900 riders and 1,176 tubers for a total
of 4,076 in 28 operating days.
The 2018/19 season was shortened by the Federal Government shutdown but we still had a
successful season with 17 operating days and 2,242 total ski/snowboard/tubing visits.
Total 2017/2018 operating days for the lifts and tubing were 35 days and the skier/snowboard/tubing
visits were 3,242.
Historically we average about 3,500 rider days with some years up to 5,500.
The fact that Port Angeles has its own alpine ski and snowboard area is an extremely unique
addition to our area. The next closest alpine ski areas include Mount Washington on Vancouver
Island, Stevens Pass, Snoqualmie Summit and Crystal Mountain all of which are over 150 miles
away and more than 3-hour travel time. For example, Mount Washington is over 3-hour drive and
152 miles from Victoria. Crystal Mountain is now taking reservations for access and weekends are
full for the season. More and more riders will be looking for smaller areas to explore.

3.If you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing
differently this year? If this is your first-time requesting funding, what is your
reason for the request?
Answer:
This year we have redesigned our website to increase our online presence and online sales. We
developed a COVID plan in partnership with the Clallam County Health Department and Olympic
National Park officials that was in line with the National Ski Area Association (NSAA) policy on
operating safely during the COVID pandemic. With this plan we are able to offer safe, socially
distanced recreation during the pandemic. Check out the NSAA Ski Well, Be Well documents at
https://nsaa.org/skiwellbewell. We expect to have a busy 2020/2021 Winter Season as people from
the I-5 corridor continue to seek space to escape the congestion and the pandemic.
We continued our partnership with IndyPass that continues to advertising across the country for it’s
member ski areas. This exposure assist HRWSC but also Port Angeles in tourism promotion. During
the 2019/2020 season we had 45 documented riders with Indy Pass season passes visit Hurricane
Ridge and they were all from out of town based on zip codes and in the coveted 20-55 age range.
Already in December of 2020 we have had 31 visitors from Indy Pass. While these numbers may
seem small they are just a sample of business we do with tourist from out of town mostly from the
Kitsap and Seattle area. The popularity of Indy Pass continues to grow with sales in the first 24 hours
on 9/1/2020 up 610% over the first 5 days of 2019! This is great exposure for HRWSC and Port
Angeles.
After careful consideration and discussion with our partners at Black Ball we feel that this year in
particular would be a difficult season for the HRWSC shuttle to be successful and show an
improvement over last year's numbers. While we think HRWSC will have a successful season, we
think the shuttle numbers would struggle.
Some contributing factors for a presumed difficult shuttle season:
•Aramark concessions closed, potentially discouraging non-skier visitors
•Will parents feel comfortable placing their kids on the board an optional bus with pandemic
related precautions?
•Will the parking lot be busy/full enough to encourage adult passengers to ride the bus versus
driving up in their own "bubble" car that people have gotten used to during the pandemic
•Social distancing on the bus potentially limiting max capacity
Some reasons we think HRWSC may have a banner year:
•Increased parking at Hurricane Ridge for skier/snowboarders with Aramark not operating
•Park volunteers note increasing numbers of visitors from the Seattle area
•Hurricane Ridge is a valuable resource for winter tourism (lifts, tubing, snowshoeing,
sightseeing). Area is popular with out of town visitors with daily full parking lot
•Cascade ski areas are increasingly crowded adding to our appeal
•Increasing popularity of the Indy Pass with more skiers wanting to explore less crowded
areas in more remote areas, like Hurricane Ridge
HRWSC remains committed and optimistic that the shuttle service can be a valuable driver for winter
tourism in Port Angeles. We look forward to reviving this service, with support from the City and other
interested community partners, in future years and post pandemic.

4.Describe the prior success of your operation/facility in attracting tourists. How do
you define success?
Answer:
We average 3,500 users per year with a conservative estimate of 25% percent of those visitors
traveling from out of town. Last season we attracted 4,076 visitors to our area. The Indy Pass has
increased our exposure greatly outside a 50 mile radius. We get lots of personal feedback from
visitors and ski school participants at our Mountain Operation Center or ticket trailer on the hill.
Tubing has also been very popular with tourists and expands our appeal to a much wider
demographic. We are working with our ONP partner to expand the tubing operation. Small ski/
snowboard areas continue to increase in popularity.
5.Describe you target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Answer:
Our target tourist audience are winter sports enthusiasts and families from Vancouver Island and the
Kitsap Peninsula. The popularity of hometown or local ski and snowboard areas has greatly
increased in recent years as bigger resorts become more expensive and more crowded and less
personal. We continue to focus our services toward children and families providing a ski and
snowboard school and free participation for 4th and 5th graders thanks to support from the Hurricane
Ridge Winter Sports Education Foundation (501-C-3)
6.Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
Answer:
Our organization depends on safe equipment for continued smooth operation and high quality
employees for excellent customer service. Lift operators are the face of our organization on the hill
and we need them to be competent and friendly. Direct support for our non-profit organization will
allow us to continue to provide safe and reliable lift operations and tubing at Hurricane Ridge in
order to attract winter recreation tourists.
7.Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and
businesses located in the City of Port Angeles.
Answer:
We advertise local businesses on our HRWSC ski van and on our on-hill lifts. We promote local
events and establishments on our Instagram and Facebook sites, through the extremely popular
Winterfest event that attracts about 400 people and with our Outdoor Adventure series that runs
through the winter months. Increased advertising this year through Indy Pass and the OPVB funded
brochure add further to our promotion of businesses in the City of Port Angeles.
8.Are you applying for Lodging Tax funds from another jurisdiction? Check the
appropriate box
(Yes☐or No X)? If yes, list the other jurisdiction(s) and amount(s) requested.
Answer:
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 66
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page !5
9.What is the overall budget for your operation/facility? What percent of the budget
are you requesting from Port Angeles Lodging Tax Fund? What percentage of your
budget is related to tourism and marketing activities?
Answer:
Our overall operations budget is about $150,000 per year. Approximately 10% of our budget is
marketing. Our biggest expenses are for staffing, fuel and insurance. We rely heavily on fundraising
locally with November’s Winterfest our biggest fundraiser (due to COVID this event was cancelled
for 2020). As previously mentioned, we were also recruited to join Indy Pass which partners us with
50+ other independent ski areas across the US. Indy Pass markets nationally, Indyskipass.com
10.What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your
request is not available or recommended? How is Lodging Tax funding essential to
the success of your proposal?
Answer:
If the direct operational support for fuel costs and lift operator salaries request was not granted, we
would need to depend more heavily on local fundraising or limit our operations or possibly delay
maintenance of equipment. Our operation rarely has shown a margin over our 63 years and our
survival is completely dependent on a small group of hardworking volunteers and local fundraising.
When the snow is there, and the road is open, the lifts need to be spinning for our volunteer led
organization to survive. There is no guarantee that our operation will continue without ongoing local
support. Thank You!
11.How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW
67.28.1816? Please be specific and cite code directly.

Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your tourism-related operation/facility.
Answer: OLYMPIC PENINSULA LOOP CULINARY TOURISM ASSOCIATION (aka Olympic Culinary Loop
and/or OCL) is the only representative tourism marketing organization promoting the foundational
culinary tourism sector around all four counties of the Olympic Peninsula.
Through our core print & digitally downloaded project, “The Map”, and supporting website and social
media platforms, OCL educates, amplifies, and originates the messaging regarding culinary tourism
across the Peninsula.
2. Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism activity in Port
Angeles.
Answer: Research continually shows “Foodies” as one of the four primary personas visiting the
Olympic Peninsula. OCL is best positioned to focus the marketing of Olympic Peninsula’s delicious
culinary tourism messages. Our “appetizing itineraries” illustrate multi day packaged combos of “See,
Do, Dine, and Stay” in each of the four counties around our Peninsula. Our monthly “Fresh Sheet”
offers a real-time call to action featuring member’s specials and offerings to a subscriber list of
10,000+ hungry “Taste Tourist”. Our “Culinary Calendar” – typically - features Winter, Spring, Summer
and Fall culinary events and special events such as the Dungeness Seafood & Crab Festival. Yet due to
COVID-19 festival marketing has been replaced with the survival of this essential tourism sector.
The primary emphasis of our audience focus is for “Taste Tourist’s” travel 50+ miles to their multi
element culinary experience. Our Map distribution is testament to marketing along the I-5 corridor
and beyond. During COVID-19 we worked collaboratively to launch EatLocalFirstOlyPen.com and
heighten the essential sense of place associated with local food systems.
We continue to reach out to PA tourism marketing in an effort to collaborate specifically on Port
Angeles focused culinary marketing, much in the same way we do with Ocean Shores, Sequim and
Port Townsend.
3. If you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing differently this year? If
this is your first-time requesting funding, what is your reason for the request?
Answer: We will continue our strategic distribution of ‘lure’ brochures through the ferry system and
key I-5 corridor areas, inclusive of SEA and PDX airports. This lure brochure is supported by a real-time
PDF download of the full OCL “Map” and website based custom itinerary building tools.
Due to COVID-19 we foresee 1&2Q2021 focused on messaging of Eat Local First – Olympic Peninsula,
promotion of the ShowWALove.com gift certificate portal, and promoting the “personalities behind
the labels” of both our added-value producers and passionate culinary professionals.
As the vaccine is widely distributed and the ability to – once again – congregate for traditional culinary
festivals, such as October’s Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival, OCL will again be promoting the
event and producing content such the CrabFest cooking demo stage.
4. Describe the prior success of your operation/facility in attracting tourists. How do you define
success?
Answer: Prior to COVID-19 our culinary tourism success was seen in annual increases of 3-5+% in
every Clallam County visitors’ dollar spent on food, based on research prepared annually by Dean
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 93
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non -Event Application Page 3
Runyan Associates. Since COVID-19 our success will most noticeable if OCL is able, in part, with local
government officials, to help the largest percentage of the whole culinary tourism industry survive the
pandemic. For without a robust and Olympic Peninsula authentic culinary tourism industry to
welcome back post-pandemic visitors, the Olympic Peninsula’s food scene will consist largely of
generic, drive-through, Golden-Arches’ offerings.
5. Describe you target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Answer: The primary emphasis of our audience focus is for “Taste Tourist’s” travel 50+ miles to their
multi element culinary experience. Our Map distribution is testament to marketing along the I-5
corridor and beyond. MAP fulfillment requests come in from 32 states and 8 foreign countries.
Social media analytics indicate that 25-54-year age range, 57-43% men over women represent our
core demographic. Our collaborative Eat Local First – Olympic Peninsula campaign also has a support
and preserve call-to-action for our communities. We feel that this is valid Costs of a Tourism-Related
Infrastructure during these unpresented times.
6. Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
Answer: Our “appetizing itineraries” illustrate and inspire multi day packaged combos of “See, Do, Dine,
and Stay” in each of the four counties around our Peninsula. Our monthly “Fresh Sheet” offers a real-
time call to action featuring member’s specials and offerings to a subscriber list of 10,000+ hungry
“Taste Tourist”. Our “Culinary Calendar” features Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall culinary events and
special events such as the Dungeness Seafood & Crab Festival.
7. Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and businesses
located in the City of Port Angeles.
Answer: We promote “Eat Your Way Around the LOOP” by illustrating the size and scope of “YUM!” to
discover here. We promote See, Do, Dine and Stay itineraries that radiate from a ‘basecamp’ of local
accommodations, experience local production of food and added-value producers, and culminates with
a curated listing of cooperative restaurant partners who pride themselves in buying, service and
celebrating local products throughout their menu.
8. Are you applying for Lodging Tax funds from another jurisdiction? Check the appropriate box
(Yes☒or No☐)? If yes, list the other jurisdiction(s) and amount(s) requested.
Answer: City of Ocean Shores - $1,000, City of Port Townsend, $750, City of Sequim - $1,000, Jefferson
County - $5,000, Clallam County $5,000, Mason County - $1,000, Grays Harbor - $3,500, Kitsap County
- $500, Island County - $250.
9. What is the overall budget for your operation/facility? What percent of the budget are you
requesting from Port Angeles Lodging Tax Fund? What percentage of your budget is related to
tourism and marketing activities?
Answer: $34,800 total budget. The request of Port Angeles total 8.62% of total budget. OCL annually
relies on 50% partner contributions from LTAC and 50% from industry members. However, due to
COVID-19, our industry members will most likely continue to be hard pressed to contribute much until
3 or 4Q2021. 100% of Olympic Culinary Loop’s budget is related to tourism and tourism marketing
activities.

City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non -Event Application Page 4
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not
available or recommended? How is Lodging Tax funding essential to the success of your
proposal?
Answer: Emphasis and focus, e.g. integrating FAM tours through town and overall sense of place
marketing content, such as the attached 2-page Advertorial examples done in partnership with city of
Port Townsend, would be reduced should Port Angeles not fully fund our request for support.
11. How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816?
Please be specific and cite code directly.
Answer: OCL directly promotes tourism marketing of special events and festivals designed to attract
tourists (1.b), primarily focusing advertising and promotions to visitors fifty-miles or more – one-way –
from their place of residence, for the purpose of day or overnight travel. (2.a.ii)

Application Questionnai re
1. Describe your tourism-related operationfacility.
Answer: The Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission (OPTC) is a cooperative marketing partnership among
area cities, counties, and marketirg entities that, together, have been collaborating for over L5 years to
market the broader destination of the Olympic Peninsula to out-of-area visitors. Our focus is entirely on
people who will travel more than 50 miles to the destination, with primary emphasis on those who will stay
overnight in the destination. No.mal target market areas include the " -5 corridor", from Bellingham to
Portland, with emphasis on Metro Seattle; Metro Portland; Victoria, BC and Vancouver lsland; key feeder
markets such as Oregon, California, Arizona, and Texas; and, in cooperation with Visit Seattle and the Port of
Seattle, key inbound international markets, primarily UK, Germany, Fran:e, and growing Asian markets. For
2O2I, as we work together to rebuild our tourism industry, our focus will be closer to home: primarily the l-5
corridor, Washington, Oregon and California regional travel, and, once the US / Canadian border reopens,
Vancouver lsland. We will expand for more national outreach as is sta6e appropriate.
OPTC is a good example of the whrle being greater than the sum of its prrts. Working cooperatively, the
Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission (OPTC) partners share in the planning and implementation of annual
marketing activities to inspire and inform travelers from outside the area to visit the Olympic Peninsula.
Further details follow below.
2. Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism activity in Port
Angeles.
Answer: OPTC's marketing outr-.ach promotes the regional destination of the Olympic Peninsula, including
Port Angeles. Our focus is on attracting overnight visitors to the Olympic Peninsula for multiple night stays,
particularly in the shoulder seasons. We position the Olympic Peninsula as a road trip destination, as a pre-
or post-cruise destination, and as a viable connector for those traveling through Washington and Oregon
(particularly popular with internat onal travelers). Our website and travel planner feature all the key cities
and attractions across the Olympic Peninsula, including Port Angeles. The lodging information in both our
website and travel planner provide information on and website links to all lodging on the Olympic Peninsula,
including Port Angeles. Our website's events calendar, as well as our regular enewsletter communications
(50,000 distribution) feature events all across the Olympic Peninsula, including Port Angeles. Some of the
Port Angeles events that have been previously supported through these :ommunications include: Winter lce
Village, Juan de Fuca Festival, Arts and Draughts Festival, Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival, Ride the
Hurricane and numerous other sporting events. Our familiarization tours often overnight in Port Angeles.
Allof these activities are designed to help drive increased tourism activity to the Olympic Peninsula, including
Port Angeles.
3. lf you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing differently this year? lf
this is your first-time requesting funding, what is your reason for the request?
Answer: 2021 will be a year of rebuilding, following the pandemic-related travel restrictions of 2020, and
their significant negative impact tc our local travel industry. Regional destination marketing only happens
through the collaborative efforts of the OPTC partners. lt is vital to maintain the core destination functions,
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Nor-Event Applicaiion Page 2
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 119
including: the destination website, the travel planner production and fulfillment, the educational
familiarization tour program, and the co-operative marketing efforts. While these don't change, we
constantly look for ways to be more targeted in those efforts. Depending on final partner funding, some of
the goals for 2O2t include:
. Content development for destination website, including additional video
o lmplementation of new lodging booking engine to website (no cost to lodging entities)
r Continue to facilitate co-op advertising in WA State Visitors Guide and Scenic Byways Guide, as well as
potential for co-op advertising in shoulder season campaign ads
r Distribution of official 20n-2021 Olympic Peninsula Trovel Plowter (both print and digital), in
response to visitor inquiries, as well bulk distribution to on- and off-Peninsula visitor centers, Seattle
area hotels, SeaTac lntermtional Airport and on the WA State Ferry system. (Note: Due to COVID-
related travel restrictions, our 2O2O distribution was lower than normal, and we will continue to use
our current Travel Planner into 2021.)
o Plan and execute familiarization tours for media, tour operators and travel influencers, as appropriate.
Exploring virtual fam tours for 202I.
o lncrease public relations outreach.
o Develop marketing campaigns focused on spring and fall travel, to attract visitors in the shoulder
seasons to the Olympic Peninsula. Marketing elements include print and digital advertising, social
media, PR, and contests.
4. Describe the prior success of your operationffacility in attracting tourists. How do you define
success?
Answer:
Statewide visitor spending and visitor impacts data (broken out at the county level) is now provided by the
Washington Tourism Alliance, with research conducted by Tourism Economics and Longwoods lnternational
The most recent information available is for 2019; summary for Clallam and Jefferson counties is as follows:
A. VISITOR SPENDING: Clallam County: S200.2M (+z.a%l; Jefferson County: S126.SM ft .a%l
B. STATE / LOCAL TAXES GEIJERATED BY DIRECT VISITOR SPENDII\IG: Clallam Co. S20.4M (+2.7%l;
Jefferson co. S12.2M (+3.7%l
C. TOURISM EMPLOYMENT./ EARNINGS IMPACTS (DirCCt ANd INdirECt):
Clallam Co.2,37O Jobs / S80.3M Earnings; Jefferson Co. 1,569 Jobs / 550.2M Earnings.
2020 started out strong, looking to potentially be our best year ever for visits and visitor spending. Lodging tax
indicators for stays through February 2020 were up 15% in both Port Angeles and unincorporated Clallam
County. Visitor inquiries were coming in strong at the start of the year. Then, COV|Dl9 hit and everything took
a dramatic drop. For the next seueral months, all indicators fell: visitor information requests, VIC traffic,
Olympic National Parkvisits, hotelstays and lodging revenues (as indicated by reported city and county
lodging tax reports), etc. Throughout the remainder of the year, OPTC partners worked together to respond,
to communicate important information to potential visitors, and to begin to take phase-appropriate steps to
reach out to nearby markets (primarily western WA) as appropriate, to encourage close-by travel to the
spacious and accessible Olympic P:ninsula, capitalizing on the "get outdoors" message. As a result, it was a
busier late summer than originally projected, and our "season" extendec further into autumn than usual, with
October actually quite busy for many businesses (without the draw of the usual fall festivals). Year-end
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 3
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 120
lodging tax revenues recovered somewhat, down less than originally projected at the beginning of the
pandemic. Early pandemic projections were that 2020 lodging tax could be off as much as 50% from record
2019 levels; by year-end, unincorporated Clallam Co lodging tax was only (-20.5%) and City of Port Angeles
was (-36.4%) below 2019, both indicating that some recovery had been achieved.
Summarv of 2020 performance indicators (YTD November 2020. unless ctherwise noted):
D. Lodging Tax Funds Generated (reported through December 202012
City of Port Angeles: $502,99a (36.4% YTD vs 2019)

5. Describe you target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Answer:
(a) Greater Puget Sound area (l-5 corridor): Bellingham to Portland, emphasis Metro Seattle and South
Puget Sound, and Metro Portlard
(b) Other Washington and Oregon markets
(c ) British Columbia / Vancouver lsland - Victoria BC (once the US / Canadian border reopens)
(d) Key feeder markets, including Oregon, California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, New York
(e) Targeted international markets, in conjunction with Visit Seattle and Port of Seattle initiatives (primarily
UK, France, Germany, China, Jaf,an, South Korea, and Australia)
Based on research, our four primary target audiences are: outdoor adventure seekers, foodies, family
travelers and romantics.
6. Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
Answer: As a regional destination marketing group, the OPTC engages in a broad spectrum of
ma rketing initiatives, including:
o Production and distribution of the Olympic Peninsula Travel Planner with content for all
municipalities (including Port Angeles), plus Olympic National Park and Forest, with events calendar
and complete lodging listings for all partners. ln 2020,'J.I0,O00 Planners were produced. Due to
COVID-related travel restrictions, our 2O2O distribution was lower than normal, and we will continue
to use our current Travel Flanner into 202L, with a planned reprint mid-year.
o Management of the destination website (www.OlvmpicPeninsula.org) including ongoing content
development, events listirgs and lodging listings, to inspire travel to the Olympic Peninsula.

Create co-operative advertising in important annual visitor guides, such as the Washington State
Visitors Guide, the Scenic Byways Guide and Map, the MV Coho Magazine. OPTC "buys down the
rate" for participating indi.ridualco-op ads, bytaking out a full page ad, and shares that cost savings
with co-op partners.
Develop annual destination marketing campaigns, targeted to attracting off-season spring and
autumn travel, to attract key target market visitors from greater Puget Sound, metro Portland and
across Washington State ta the Olympic Peninsula. This includes co-op advertising opportunities for
OPTC partners, such as metro area bus ads and television. ln 2021,, we anticipate the reopening of
U.S./Canada border, and at that time would also target travelers from Vancouver lsland.
As domestic and international travel begins to return, we will plan and develop appropriate
familiarization tours for nedia and travel professionals, including international, and social media
influencers. We will also explore possibilities of virtual fam tours in 202L.
Produce and distribute mcnthly destination communication through e-newsletters to over 50,000
consumers, plus area concierge and travel industry associates.

7. Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and businesses
located in the City of Port Angeles.
Answer: As the regional destination marketing organization, the OPTC works collaboratively with the 4
counties and key Peninsula cities (Port Angeles, Sequim, Forks, Clallan Bay/Sekiu and Port Townsend),
plus the participants of Jeffersrn County Tourism Coordinating Council, to communicate a sense of place
and inspire / attract visitors to choose the Olympic Peninsula over otler destinations, such as the Oregon
Coast or the San Juan lslands, or Eastern WA. Once the potential visitor expresses interest in the overall
destination, they are able - through the website and the travel planner, or direct travel counseling - to
learn more about the specific bcations (such as Port Angeles) and their offerings (lodging, dining,
activities) that might attract them to visit. The website and the Olynpic Peninsula Travel Planner feature
specific destination and event information for each funding partner, ncluding Port Angeles. The Travel
Planner also includes a detaile'l lodging guide for each partner, including Port Angeles. We crosslink
from our website to the partners' tourism websites (including VisitPcrtAngeles.com) as well as to all
partner lodging establishments so that the potential visitor can easily make a deeper dive to the specifics
they are looking for.
New in early 2O2L, we are adding a lodging booking widget to the website, which will link to the majority
of lodging establishments on tre Olympic Peninsula, offering real-time availability, rate comparisons and
direct links for bookings, to he p offer a more inclusive consumer experience, at no additional costs or
commissions to the represented lodging.
8. Are you applying for Lodging Tax funds from another jurisdiction? Check the appropriate box
(YesXor Notr)? lf yes, list the other jurisdiction(s)and amount(s) requested.
Answer: OPTC represents multiple funding partners across the Olympic Peninsula. Majority of funding
comes from partner LTACs (including Sequim, Port Townsend, Forks, Clallam Bay/Sekiu as well as Clallam,
Jefferson, Mason and Grays Harbor counties). 2021, requested partner funding is as follows (Pleose note this

9. What is the overall budget for your operationfacility? What percent of the budget are you
requesting from Port Angeles Lodging Tax Fund? What percentage of your budget is related to
tourism and marketing activities?
Answer: Per above, the 2021, OPTC budget, including all partner funding, is still being finalized.
Preliminary budgeted total partner income: S1Z9,SOO. Percent of preliminary partner funding requested
from Port Angeles LTAC is abo,.rt 15.6%, dependent on finalfunding levels. This is a similar ratio as has
been contributed to the 2020 rudget.
Additionally, OPTC takes in some income through co-op visitor fulfillment programs (about $12,000) and
various co-op advertising opportunities. With allof that, including the proposed2O2I partner income,
as wellas some anticipated ca'ry-forward funds, the total budget for202L is anticipated to be 5281,700,
Total expenses are currently o.rtlined at 5281,600,with85.7% going to marketing support/activities, and
14.3% to administrative. Draft 202L budget is included with this appl cation.
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funCing for your request is not
available or recommended? How is Lodging Tax funding essential to the success of your proposal?
Answer: OPTC is an excellent example of where the whole is great:r than the sum of its parts.
Together, OPTC is able to magnify any single partner's marketing rearh. Only funding partners are
represented in the Olympic Peninsula Travel Planner, and on the OlyrnpicPeninsula.org website. Reduced
funding would significantly impact pandemic recovery plans, shoulder season marketing campaigns,
annual co-op ads, possible farriliarization tour outreach. Allfunding partners contribute lodging tax-
generated funds to the collabcrative efforts, making lodging tax funds the primary basis for the entire
OPTC budget.
11. How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816?
Please be specific and cite code directly.
Answer:
RCW 67.28.1816 (1Xa): "Lodging tax revenues under this chapter may be used directly by any
municipality or indirectly trrough a convention and visitors bureau or destination marketing
organization for:
(a) Tourism marketing"
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 6
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 123
Destination marketing for tourism purposes is at the very heart of the outlined uses for lodging tax
funds per the RCW. That is the primary work of the Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission, and the
basis for this proposal. lt is what we do.

Re: Port Angeles Lodging Tax request for 2021
Dear Councilman French and Members of the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee,
The Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission (OPTC) is a marketing partnership, currently representin3
L1 cities and regions in Clalbm, Jefferson, Mason, and Grays Harbor Co,rnties, working collaborativelv to
market the Olympic Peninsula as a year-round, highly desirable travel d=stination. Funding partners
include: Clallam County (OPVB - administrator), Mason County, the Lal:e Quinault lnnkeepers
Association (representing the Quinault region of Grays Harbor County), Grays Harbor Tourism
(representing unincorporated Grays Harbor County), the cities of Port Angeles, Forks, Sequim, Port
Townsend, Clallam Bay / Se<iu, and the Jefferson County Tourism Coordinating Council, representing the
cities of Port Hadlock, Port Ludlow, Quilcene and Brinnon, as well as the West End (Kalaloch and Hoh
Rainforest area). OPTC has been working together for over L5 years.
Working collaboratively, it i; the goal of the OPTC to market the Olympic Peninsula as a whole as a
desirable destination for visitors from across the state, around the region, throughout the country, and
even internationally. Working in concert to leverage marketing dollars, attending to current travel
trends, and carefully planning joint marketing programs, we have a much broader reach and specific
benefit to the many rural cammunities around the Peninsula, as well as to the key cities such as Port
Angeles.
ln 2019 (the latest data available), tourism tc Clallam County, including Port Angeles, brought 5200.2
million in direct visitor spending (up 2.4% over 2018), generating SZO.+ mittion to state and local taxes*
(alsoup2.7%oover2018). Tourismindustryemploymentimpacts(directandindirect)inClallamCounty
represents 2,370 jobs, and supports a payrol of $80.3 million in 2OI9.

Then along came 2020. The year started off tremendously strong: lodging tax was showing continuel
year-over-year gain, requests for visitor info"mation were up, website lraffic continued to increase,
planning for events was well underway, and most were predicting it to be the strongest year ever for the
region. Until mid-March,2)20. ln the ensuing months, business plumrneted, visitors stayed home ard
sheltered in place, and we alllearned newvocabulary: PPE, socialdistarcing, pod, elbow bump,
unprecedented, pivot, and of course, Zoom lnoun, adjective and verb),
Economic recovery is critical for our future, and a major component of that recovery will be the
rebuilding of our tourism industry in a sustainable manner. Now, more than ever, we need to work
together as a regional desthation, to find cornmon voice, to realize eccnomies of scale, and to continue
to build on our strong foundation.
The partners of the Olympi,: Peninsula Tourism Commission each invest a portion of their local lodgirg
tax revenues toward the ouerall marketing efforts for the Olympic Penirsula destination. Together, and
prior to 2020, these participating communities have seen double digit growth in lodging taxes generated
over the last several years, no doubt the results in part of both regional and local marketing efforts.
The following application will detail for the Lodging Tax Advisory Comn'ittee the current work of the
OPTC, as well as the planned work for 2021 that will be supported by th,e City of Port Angeles' contin red
collaboration with and representation in OP-C.
On behalf of the Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission, we respectfully request that the City of Port
Angeles LTAC once again allocate 528,000 to the Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission to enable it to
continue to market the Olympic Peninsula destination to key target auciences, and continue to grow
visitation and overnight staTs to the Olympic Peninsula, including Port Angeles.
Respectfully submitted,

2021 Lodging Tax Fund Non-Event Application
This application is for non-event related proposals only.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 140
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 2
Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your tourism-related operation/facility.
Answer:
The Port Angeles Arts Council is applying for funds to promote Port Angeles as an arts destination. We are
requesting funds for the following activities:
1. Update and reissue the map of downtown public art.
2. Upgrade and expand the promotion of the on-going monthly Second Weekend Artwalk, which happens year-
round.
3. $1500 public art call to attract nationally-recognized artists to a juried public art opportunity.
2. Describe how your operation or facility provides or will provide increased tourism activity in Port
Angeles.
Answer:
Our project aims to increase promotion of Port Angeles as an arts destination by showcasing the on-going arts
events and opportunities happening in the city.
A 2017 study by the National Endowment for the Arts found that rural art organizations draw non-local
audiences at higher rates than their urban counterparts and that 31 percent of their audiences travel “beyond a
reasonable distance” to attend arts events. https://www.arts.gov/sites/default/files/Rural%20Arts%2011-17.pdf
In addition, Michigan State Extension reports that “Within rural communities, the cultural hub of arts centers
and arts industries create an innovative business climate attracting more persons to live, work and play in the
area”. (link here) The promotion of the vibrant Port Angeles arts scene will not only highlight the Peninsula as a
tourism destination, it serves to promote the qualities of life that attract businesses to locate to the area.
3. If you have received Lodging Tax Funds in prior years, what are you doing differently this year? If
this is your first-time requesting funding, what is your reason for the request?
Answer:
The Arts Council received funding for a Second Weekend-Saturday rack card approximately 3 years ago.
Currently, in addition to the Second Weekend-Saturday rack card, we are planning to update the 2012
Outdoor Sculpture Gallery Walking Tour Guide. Now that the Arts Council has responsibility for the Art
on the Town Sculptures, we are asking for funding for (one-year) stipends for 3 new sculptures.
4. Describe the prior success of your operation/facility in attracting tourists. How do you define
success?
Answer:
The 2nd Weekend Artwalk event is focused on local residents as well as attracting outside visitors. Event attendance
has varied over the years. The event has been happening for 15 years. At its peak, 14 downtown businesses
participated in the event. With the recent re-invigoration of the Arts Council, and at the request of several
downtown galleries, members of arts organizations and local businesses are hoping to reinvigorate the event with
up-to-date marketing materials, a wider advertising reach, and new participation from local businesses. The hope
is that with more quality and quantity of advertising, businesses will begin to see an increase in participants,
realize the benefits of engaging in the 2nd Weekend ArtWalk and begin to take advantage of building their own
ways to participate.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 141
City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 3
5. Describe you target tourist audience (location, demographics, etc.)
Answer:
Studies show that many tourists are looking for unique local experiences- local food, local festivals, and, of
course, local art. A study conducted by the Australian Council for the Arts showed that thirty-eight percent of
international tourists to Australia engaged in at least one art activity and 12.5 percent participated in
Indigenous art activities. By highlighting Port Angeles as a vibrant arts destination, we can leverage the
opportunities to attract tourists seeking to experience the unique qualities of an out-of-the-way destination.
More visible promotion of the regular arts activities such as the 2nd Weekend Artwalk and the downtown
sculpture map will be aimed at capturing people in the broader Puget Sound area looking for off-season
weekend destinations. Promotion of Port Angeles as a family-friendly arts destination is another reason for
people to plan their vacations here to experience the wide range of activities that the city and the County have
to offer.
6. Describe how you will use Lodging Tax Funds to attract tourists.
Answer:
We are requesting funds for the following activities:
1. Update and reissue the map of downtown public art. The map has not been updated for several years.
There are several new additions, and several of the sculptures have been re-located.
2. Boost the visibility of the on-going monthly Second Weekend Artwalk, which happens year-round.
Numerous galleries, venues, restaurants and shops participate in the monthly event, staying open late,
offering special art events, gallery openings, and music. Funds will be used to update promotional materials
for the event including rack cards for placement on the Black Ball Ferry, a street banner, and advertising
spots in regional publications.
3. Funds to support a public art call on a national website for juried artist entries for the downtown
sculpture collection. Supporting and promoting opportunities for nationally recognized artists to showcase
their art in Port Angeles further establishes this area as a premier destination for arts tourism.
7. Describe how your request will promote lodging establishments, restaurants, and businesses
located in the City of Port Angeles.
Answer:
Americans for the Arts, in its annual survey found that a vibrant arts community helps businesses in a variety
of metrics:
The 2nd Weekend Art event involves a wide range of businesses including galleries, restaurants and bars, and non-
profit organizations. More visitors and participants to the event means more revenue for local businesses. Broader

City of Port Angeles Tourism Promotion Non-Event Application Page 4
promotion of the thriving arts community of Port Angeles in general will attract visitors, which in turn benefits non-
art related businesses such as hotels, restaurants.
8. Are you applying for Lodging Tax funds from another jurisdiction? Check the appropriate box
(Yes☐or No☒)? If yes, list the other jurisdiction(s) and amount(s) requested.
Answer:
9. What is the overall budget for your operation/facility? What percent of the budget are you
requesting from Port Angeles Lodging Tax Fund? What percentage of your budget is related to
tourism and marketing activities?
Answer:
The Port Angeles Arts Council operates on a very small budget. We are reliant on membership dues and
small fundraisers to support our insurance as a non-profit. The LTAC funding will represent an
opportunity to undertake a much needed upgraded of promotional materials produced by the Council
in 2012 and 2016.
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not
available or recommended? How is Lodging Tax funding essential to the success of your proposal?
Answer:
Lodging tax dollars are essential to the Arts Council ability to upgrade promotional materials. If full
funding is not received we will prioritize the upgrades, printing and promotion of the 2 nd Weekend
Artwalk event materials.
11. How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816?
Please be specific and cite code directly.
Answer:
Tourism marketing is the category that fits what the PAAC is requesting funding for. The brochures
will map where public art can be found and market monthly art walk and inform tourists where they
might find art. The new sculptures will add new vitality to our public art program in Port Angeles.
12. Did your organization submit an “Intent to Apply” Form for LTAC consideration during their budget
recommendation (Yes☐or No☒)?
Application Deadline: By Friday, January 8, 2020 at 5:00 pm– received at ced@cityofpa.us.

Application Questionnaire
1.Describe your event in a brief narrative. Provide the event name, date(s), projected
overall attendance, and if this is an event that has been awarded LTAX event grant
funding in the past, what is changing about the event.
Answer:
The 2021 Juan de Fuca Festival is planned to take place May 28-31, 2021 both online
and at the Vern Burton Community Center in Port Angeles, WA. The festival is planned
to be a hybrid event this year, offering some in-person activities and events, with the
majority of our programming offered through a virtual platform. As this is our first time
producing a virtual festival we have no known method to predict on-line engagement
and participation. However, we will have very accurate reports of that post-festival. For
in-person events, we plan to offer two full days of a socially distanced artisan street fair,
outdoor in-person concerts on those two days, and a variety of small group workshops -
all of which will likely draw anywhere from 2,500-3,500 attendees.
2.What is the amount you are requesting from the City? $ 10,000
3.What is the age of the event? The Juan de Fuca Festival has occurred every year
since 1992, with the exception of 2020.
4.Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or
public utility hookups?
☐Yes ☐ No
If yes, please explain, and describe any traffic control and/or utility hookups that will be
needed:
Answer:
A Right of Way Use Permit is required for 4th St. from Lincoln Street to Peabody Street to
accommodate the Festival Street Fair for 3 consecutive days. JFFA requests locates for
the street fair banners and PA City electric utility hookups for food vendors, including
spider boxes. In addition, JFFA applies for a Special Occasion Permit through the
Parks, Fair and Facilities Department.
5.Describe the audience of the event. Is the event focused on local residents or people
outside Clallam County?
Answer:
We are in our 28th year of operation and we have created a wide and loyal fan base for
this event. We hire artists from all over the world (in 2019 we worked to find overnight
accommodations for over 40 musical acts, many with families or friends in tow.) We also
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 155
City of Port Angeles 2020 Event Grant Fund Application Page !2
pay for print and flyer advertising in Victoria, BC, Seattle, Bellingham, and Portland and
for social media ads. Our virtual platform will allow us to reach well beyond our usual
audience this year, promoting the area and encouraging future visits when travel opens
up safely, especially for the 2022 festival! Staying relevant is key to ensuring future
tourism.
6.What is the overall budget of the event, and how much of that budget will be spent on
advertising outside Clallam County? An itemized event budget is a required
attachment to this application.
Answer: $84,050.00 (please refer to attached detailed event budget)
7.Do you have other event sponsors? If so, how much income do you plan to receive in
total from other sponsors?
Answer:
Yes, this event has multiple sponsors. We have received grant money from the Clallam
County Tax Commission as well as a CARES Act grant through ArtsWA which will be
applied to this event. JFFA is hopeful to receive a small amount of grant money from
both the Port Angeles Education Foundation as well as the Olympic Peninsula Visitor's
Bureau. In total, along with a small handful of local corporate sponsorships, our total
applied grant/sponsorship for this event is predicted to be $35,000.
8.Is there a host hotel for your event? If yes for returning events, list the host hotel and
an estimate of how many rooms were booked last year.
Answer:
In the past, JFFA has used Red Lion Port Angeles as our primary host hotel, booking
rooms for our touring artists and offering packages, including discounts on festival
passes, to JFFA patrons when booking a room. It is estimated that approximately 40-50
rooms were booked throughout the long weekend in 2019. In 2021 we are also hoping
to align our event with the 7 Cedars Hotel, expanding our reach to Sequim visitors by
streaming our virtual platform directly into guest rooms. Unfortunately, due to continued
impacts of COVID-19, we have very limited in-person tickets available and aren't
predicting a huge draw for overnight visitors. However, our ability to advertise our
location globally through our virtual platform is very useful and promises to encourage
future visits from out of town music and art lovers.
9.How many people have attended your event in the past? How did you obtain these
figures?
Answer:
As the Juan de Fuca Festival is almost three decades in operation, attendance numbers
vary greatly depending on which past year we reference. Most recently, sales and
estimation indicate that between 7,000-13,000 people have attended this event
annually. 2020 was intended to be the year that :JFFA invest in an economic impact
study to deliberately track all festival attendees (as our street fair is free to the public it is
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 156
City of Port Angeles 2020 Event Grant Fund Application Page !3
a challenge to accurately track that number). 2021 will provide us with very accurate
numbers, although they will be much smaller for the in-person offerings. I am very
curious to see how vast and expansive our virtual engagement is.
10.What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is
not available or recommended?
Answer:
In the event that our request is not fully funded, JFFA will trim down it’s marketing
campaign and lean more heavily on industry wide grass roots marketing strategies.
Additionally, we may have to limit or merchandise offerings, charge more for tickets than
we intend to, and/or decrease the amount of reimbursement we can offer our
professional artists. Regardless, our goal is to produce a high quality event during our
traditional weekend that serves our Clallam County community and beyond while
preserving precious resources that will allow us to truly thrive through a full in-person
festival offering in 2022.
11.What will you or your organization do differently this year that will improve upon last
year’s event?
Answer:
This year, JFFA has been forced to rethink how we present art, music, and dance to our
community and beyond in the safest way possible. Like most performing arts
presenters, we've found ourselves immersed in the world of digital and social media
engagement. Although new to us, JFFA has successfully reached new global audiences
through recent live streaming and digital media. We have even received multiple
inquiries from distant patrons about visiting us for our future in-person events.
Our hybrid model festival this year will be a two-day in person event paired with a four-
day virtual event. Our events open each day at 11am and conclude at 10pm. Most of
our ticket sales are for full festival passes which means visitors use our local lodging for
their accommodations. We also pay for a handful of our visiting artists to stay in local
hotels. Due to potential travel limitations and possible restrictions still in place for large
group gatherings, the 2021 festival will leverage it's online presence to promote and
market the City of Port Angeles and Clallam County through partnerships with tourism
related organizations, the City of PA in particular, and advertisements.
12.Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or
public utility hookups?
☐Yes ☐ No.
If yes, what facilities will be used?
Answer:
Please refer to the answer in question #4.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 157
City of Port Angeles 2020 Event Grant Fund Application Page !4
13.Does this event take advantage of innovative opportunities?
Answer:
Due to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, innovation has been our guiding light as we
transform our traditional festival structure into a hybrid platform, offering two days of
outdoor in-person concerts (limited to 200-300 patrons per day), a socially distanced
street fair, and a robust virtual festival offering spanning the full four days. The virtual
festival will feature four “stages” and showcase artists from across the country. JFFA will
also include interactive workshops for participants to register for.
14.Does this event benefit the entire county?
☐Yes ☐ No.
If yes, please explain how:
Answer:
In typical years JFFA opens this festival weekend with “Kid Fest” which offers free
school shows to over 3,000 Port Angeles youth. As we are unable to do this in person
this year, we have made plans to offer the Port Angeles School District a virtual school
show featuring an incredibly high caliber performing group along with a study guide for
teachers to facilitate the experience. Due to the ease of access in a virtual world, we
can now also offer this program to other school districts on the North Olympic
Peninsula, as well, including Crescent, Forks, Sequim, and many private schools. This
expansion is arts education is a huge opportunity for us to engage the further reaches
of our community in hopes of future program participation.
Our free street fair is also a huge benefit to the entire county as we include many artisan
and food vendors from Clallam County in our roster. This increases potential income for
local independent artists and restauranteurs while attracting their faithful patrons to our
event.
15.How does this event support or involve local businesses or organizations?
Answer:
The 2021 Juan de Fuca Festival is unique in its design as it is our first hybrid festival -
offering both virtual and live events. The virtual platform provides a unique opportunity
to promote local hotels, businesses, and recreation opportunities throughout the festival
with video ads, hyperlinks, tourism oriented promotions, etc. We intend to work closely
with the local Chamber of Commerces, the Visitor's Bureau, National Park, City officials
and tribal entities to endorse Port Angeles and it's appeal.
16.Based on State mandated reporting, please complete items A thru F below. If this is a
new event, put n/a in the 2020 column. A requirement of the award reimbursement is

Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your event in a brief narrative. Provide the event name, date(s), projected overall attendance, and if this
is an event that has been awarded LTAX event grant funding in the past, what is changing about the event.
Answer:
The NW Cup is the premier MTB downhill series not only in the PNW, but the country. We are going into
our 13th year and still growing. Particularly the youth categories have blown up over the last few years
which brings families and coaches. Due to Covid 19, we will be starting the series in May rather than April,
and moving the finals to Port Angeles in September to ensure that our participants get to race at their
favorite venue, and our town gets to benefit from the visitation
2. What is the amount you are requesting from the City? $5,300
3. What is the age of the event? This will be year 13
4. Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or public utility hookups?
☐Yes ☒ No
If yes, please explain, and describe any traffic control and/or utility hookups that will be needed:
Answer:
5. Describe the audience of the event. Is the event focused on local residents or people outside Clallam County?
Answer: 98% of our participants come from off the Peninsula. We attract racers from Washington,
Oregon, Idaho, California, Colorado, British Columbia, and a handful of East Coast States. The second
round will have a fair amount of riders from Europe as well.
6. What is the overall budget of the event, and how much of that budget will be spent on advertising outside Clallam
County? An itemized event budget is a required attachment to this application.
Answer: We have two budgets, one for the overall series, and one for each event. The budget is 100%
dependent on attendance so they are estimates, and the expenses vary greatly depending on the location.
This year we have 5 different venues. Our primary means of advertisement is through social media and
our website. Fortunately we have no need for “print advertising” as our audience is tech savvy, and we
have developed a very dedicated base of followers.
7. Do you have other event sponsors? If so, how much income do you plan to receive in total from other sponsors?
Answer: We do receive some cash sponsorship, but it is minimal. Most sponsorship comes in the form
of product for raffles. We rely primarily on entry fees for operational expenses.
8. Is there a host hotel for your event? If yes for returning events, list the host hotel and an estimate of how many
rooms were booked last year.
Answer: The Red Lion is our “sponsored hotel” and we had in the area of 200 room nights with them
alone. Additionally the more budget hotels like the Super 8 and Days Inn are completely full.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 167
City of Port Angeles 2020 Event Grant Fund Application Page 2
9. How many people have attended your event in the past? How did you obtain these figures?
Answer: Last year our first event had 450 entries and another 200 support people. Given the current
state of the world, we expect this number to grow provided we are able to execute the event given the
current guidelines. Keep in mind that all of them spend at least 3‐4 days and 2‐3 nights for each event as
nobody is within driving distance to their home, and the events span 3 days.
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not available or
recommended?
Answer: In a word, nothing. The primary use of the requested funds will be our Emergency Medical service.
For the last couple years we have contracted Norpoint Medical and will do so again as they have proven as an
essential part of our event..
11. What will you or your organization do differently this year that will improve upon last year’s event?
Answer: This year, we will be having to alter several of our SOP’s in response to the current pandemic. We
have no idea of knowing what the world will look like at that point, but we are currently working on several tweaks
to keep people safe. This will undoubtedly involve additional staff and sanitation products.
12. Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or public utility hookups?
☐Yes ☒ No.
If yes, what facilities will be used?
Answer:
13. Does this event take advantage of innovative opportunities?
Answer: At this point, we are planning a slightly modified version of our events for safety purposes.
14. Does this event benefit the entire county?
☒Yes ☐ No.
If yes, please explain how:
Answer: Typically, there is not enough lodging in Port Angeles so participants tend to spread out to Sequim, and
vacation rentals from Sequim to Lake Sutherland.
15. How does this event support or involve local businesses or organizations?
Answer: We only have one food vendor and no camping at the event. Given this, people utilize all sorts
of lodging options, restaurants, gas stations and grocery stores. Gear providers such as the bike shops,
Swains, Browns, are all frequented by our competitors as well.

Application Questionnaire
1. Describe your event in a brief narrative. Provide the event name, date(s), projected overall attendance, and if
this is an event that has been awarded LTAX event grant funding in the past, what is changing about the event.
The 20th Annual Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival is October 8‐10, 2021 at the Port Angeles City Pier, Red
Hotel Port Angeles Harbor, Gateway Center, one block of Lincoln Street, and the Clallam Transit Lanes. There is
no admission charge to the Festival. CrabFest is specifically designed to bring tourists to PA and the Olympic
Peninsula during the shoulder tourism season while celebrating our rich cultural traditions, marine life and the
home of Dungeness Crab. Attendance has grown to approximately 20,000 with significant numbers of
Canadians and visitors from around the world attending. CrabFest has received national recognition: The
American Bus Association selected CrabFest as one of the Top 100 Events in North America, GQ Magazine
listed CrabFest as one of the top 5 Seafood Festivals, Coastal Living Magazine named us one of the Top 5
Coastal Events, and we were even a question on Jeopardy. This year we are making plans to be able to handle
Covid19 and the changes in event dynamics that are likely to occur.
2. What is the amount you are requesting from the City? $15,000
3. What is the age of the event? 20 years
4. Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or public utility hookups?
Yes
If yes, please explain, and describe any traffic control and/or utility hookups that will be needed:
Lincoln St between Railroad Ave and Front St. is closed. Only utilities are use of spider boxes on pier.
5. Describe the audience of the event. Is the event focused on local residents or people outside Clallam County?
CrabFest is focused on bringing overnight visitors to PA during the shoulder season and nearly all of our
marketing is focused on this goal. Our target audience are cultural tourists especially "foodies" and
"adventure" travelers. We work on two levels ‐ first to attract visitors to the Olympic Peninsula during the fall
season, and second, to bring visitors here specifically for Crab Festival weekend. Our website includes a very
complete tourism section and links to other sources of information. This brings together everything that is
special and unique about the Olympic Peninsula. Surveys indicate that approximately 60% of the visitors are
from more than 50 miles away. While that is the focus of our marketing, 40% of our audience is local and
CrabFest and the crucial base of the event. Although as a food centered event most of the audience is adults,
but we do have considerable numbers of locals who bring their children to participate in the Grab‐A‐Crab
Derby, our most popular activity as well as take in the great food and entertainment.
6. What is the overall budget of the event, and how much of that budget will be spent on advertising outside
Clallam County? An itemized event budget is a required attachment to this application.
Total Budget is $355,000
Marketing $22,000
Marketing outside Clallam County ‐ $21,000
7. Do you have other event sponsors? If so, how much income do you plan to receive in total from other sponsors?
We have more than 45 sponsors, almost all are local businesses, donating $100 or more, mostly in in‐kind
goods and services. We have budgeted for $20,000 in cash, less than in previous years because of the
uncertain economy.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 180
City of Port Angeles 2020 Event Grant Fund Application Page 2
8. Is there a host hotel for your event? If yes for returning events, list the host hotel and an estimate of how many
rooms were booked last year.
Red Lion Hotel Port Angeles Harbor – 187 rooms, approximately 450 room nights
.
9. How many people have attended your event in the past? How did you obtain these figures?
We estimate 20,000. The festival admission is free so it is all an estimate, but we calculate our attendance
estimate from actual dinner ticket sales plus system of estimating crowds at multiple times during the day,
especially seating and turnover rates from the 1,000 seat Crab Central Pavilion.
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not available or
recommended?
We will have to reduce our marketing. We need as much marketing as we can afford, especially to attract the
approximately 60% of our audience that fill the lodging in Clallam County Even though the Festival is late in the
year there still could be Covid19 restrictions but most importantly, we don’t know how “comfortable” people
will be with going to major events. We have spent all of our reserves and we may have lower sponsor revenue
this first year as we get the vaccine and businesses recover. As with all events at this time, our ability to plan
and budget based on previous experience is dramatically reduced.
11. What will you or your organization do differently this year that will improve upon last year’s event?
We will be ready to implement a wide range of Covid19 strategies depending on Health Dept regulations.
Regardless of requirements we will be providing hand sanitation stations throughout the grounds and more
public sink locations. We will be prepared for booth spacing, audience spacing, mask requirements and other
potential requirements. The 2019 festival went well, but because of the greater financial risk we are reviewing
each department for cost savings. A major goal will be to reduce lines so people are not stuck close to others.
Since our lines are at the food booths we are working with each vendor and our own structure to get food out
faster but still maintain service and quality in a small space. Also a major marketing goal will be to try and
educate the audience to spread out their visitation times as this reduces wait times. Our biggest problem is the
lack of parking and we are working to find a solution.
12. Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or public utility hookups?
Yes
If yes, what facilities will be used?
‐ Close Lincoln Street between Railroad Ave and Front St.
‐ Use parking spaces in front of the Gateway on Front as a taxi stand
‐ Use parking in front of H20 Waterfront Bistro on Railroad Ave as a handicap drop‐off zone
13. Does this event take advantage of innovative opportunities?
Every year we are looking for new programs, foods, and ways to enhance the experience for the public. There
are 18 food booths and our philosophy is to look at all of the individual menus as if the entire site is one
restaurant, and this is where we focus a lot of effort. For example, last year Jamestown Seafood added
Geoduck sashimi to their menu. This also provided a marketing opportunity. We are very limited in adding new
programs that occupy physical space as we are using all of the space that is available to us in this tight
downtown area.

14. Does this event benefit the entire county?
Yes
If yes, please explain how:
‐ We fill most of the lodging in Sequim and Port Angeles and the B&B and other rentals throughout the county.
‐ We also encourage visitors to consider Forks and other rural housing to avoid the crowds in Port Angeles.
‐The Festival is an event that most people see in a day. Our overnight audience often stays for multiple days and
even for just an overnight, visitors have time to visit more of the Peninsula. This is highlighted on our website.
‐The festival is an outdoor event and fall weather often brings cold, wind, and rain. Our visitors spend a lot of
time in local restaurants, bars, and stores throughout the county.
15. How does this event support or involve local businesses or organizations?
‐ Many local businesses, restaurants, and artists are Festival vendors
‐ We market Port Angeles downtown and encourage visitors to sample all that PA has to offer.
‐ Ferry Coho delivers over 3,000 tourists, and while most are day travelers there are many overnight stays
‐ We use local vendors and suppliers such as High Tide Seafood that supplies upwards of $100,00 in fresh
Dungeness Crab, plus copying and printing, insurance, office supplies, and other businesses.
16. Based on State mandated reporting, please complete items A thru F below. If this is a new event, put n/a in

Application Questionnaire
1.Describe your event in a brief narrative. Provide the event name, date(s), projected overall attendance, and if
this is an event that has been awarded LTAX event grant funding in the past, what is changing about the event.
Answer:
Mission Statement
Organize and produce a high quality running events showcasing areas along the Olympic Discovery Trail.
Event Details
The Port Angeles Marathon Association (PAMA) promotes and manages the North Olympic Discovery Marathon
(NODM) and Run the Peninsula (RTP). North Olympic Discovery Marathon weekend, which includes two days of
running races, is held along the Olympic Discovery Trail from Sequim to Port Angeles. The inaugural event was
held June 15, 2003.
June 5-6, 2021 will mark the 19th anniversary for this popular community event. This year (post COVID-19) we
hope that 6,000 people will attend including participants, family and friends of runners, spectators from the
region, volunteers, sponsors, and vendors. The event brings approximately $2.0 million in tourism related activity
to Clallam County each year.
Run the Peninsula Race Series was started in 2019. The series is made up of 5 races spanning sections of the
Olympic Discovery Trail from Port Townsend to Port Angeles. Each race offers a 5K or 10K distance. All finishers of
each race will receive a unique medal. Finishers of all five races receive a unique stand that will help to display an
impressive showpiece of your accomplishments. Participants can save on entry fees when they bundle more than
one event.
February 6th, 2021 will mark the 3rd annual Elwha River Bridge 5K / 10K Race. The event is held on the Olympic
Discovery Trail as an out-and-back race.
2.What is the amount you are requesting from the City? $$12,000.00 (NODM - $10,000.00 & RTP - $2,000.00)
3.What is the age of the event? NODM – 19th Year, RTP – 3rd Year
4.Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or public utility hookups?
☒Yes ☐ No
If yes, please explain, and describe any traffic control and/or utility hookups that will be needed:
Answer:
PAMA requests the use of the City Pier parking area for staging of the Kids Marathon and Marathon finish line
venue. PAMA works with the City of PA staff to complete necessary applications and permits for use of the
pier area. The City will assist with blockades and PAMA will provide and construct fencing and Marshals in
some areas. The Waterfront Trail is blocked for about 20 yards (from the Red Lion patio to RR Street) to
ensure a safe finish line crossing for participants. All festivities at City Pier are free and open to the public.
The Elwha River Bridge run is a USATF (USA Track & Field) sanctioned event. This means that runners have the
right of way and the appropriate applications are submitted to the county for approval. In 2020, for the Elwha
River Bridge Run $160.00 was paid to Clallam County Public Works Department.
5.Describe the audience of the event. Is the event focused on local residents or people outside Clallam County?
Answer:
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 191
City of Port Angeles 202 1 Event Grant Fund Application Page 2
Targeted Audience
The North Olympic Discovery Marathon was created to be a destination event. The event audience is the
international running community. People from all over the world, who have yet participated in the NODM,
have heard of it through this vast and powerful community. They visit the NODM website, they read reviews,
they visit the NODM social media pages, they research the area, and it is on their radar as an event to consider.
The main focus in 2021 is to build the momentum back to where it was in 2019 (pre-COVID) Athletes travel
from every state and overseas for this event. In 2020, for the first time ever, this event had participants from all
50 states. Due to the fact that it was an all virtual event PAMA was able to focus marketing all across the United
States. Our marketing plan did very well as we were able to keep our registration numbers within 20% of 2019
and have a participant from every state.
The main focus for the 3rd annual event is to provide a need to our community while at the same time bringing
participants from outside of Clallam County. In 2020 there were 1,984 virtual participants for the Elwha River
Bridge 5K / 10K.
For North Olympic Discovery Marathon you can see the distribution of participants by city (onsite switched to
virtual) and state (virtual only) of registration below. (*note the graphs do not show any city less than 21
participants or state less than 8 participants)
For the Elwha River Bridge Run you can see the distribution of participants by city (onsite switched to virtual)
and state (virtual only) of registration below. (*note the graphs do not show any city less than 14 participants
or state less than 6 participants)

City of Port Angeles 202 1 Event Grant Fund Application Page 3
Local Impact
Every year, the NODM and sees an increase in the number of local participants. Even though 95% of all
marketing is done outside of the area, what we have learned is that locals who have volunteered or watched
the event have become inspired to participate. We believe that a large health and fitness event in our
community is a major factor in transforming the health of our population and putting the Olympic Peninsula on
the map as an “active” community. When locals see the NODM finishers, the sport becomes more accessible to
them. This shift in our community has been very rewarding.
Over the past 5 years the North Olympic Discovery Marathon 10K has grown 32% and the 5K has grown 48%.
These two distances are very popular all types of people. Run the Peninsula was created to be a destination
event and bring participants from outside the area during the off season as well as provide an event to the local
community.
6. What is the overall budget of the event, and how much of that budget will be spent on advertising outside
Clallam County? An itemized event budget is a required attachment to this application.
Answer:
The budget1 for ALL 2021 PAMA events is $400,000.00. Approximately 30% of our budget, $115,900.00, is
allocated for advertising. Nearly 100% of the advertising budget is targeted on markets outside of Clallam
County. Below is a detailed plan of where and how advertising dollars are spent.
2021 Marketing and Promotion Plan
Strategic Planning takes place immediately after each years’ event in order to evaluate current marketing ideas
and best values to implement for the next event. The 2021 marketing plan is in place and has a heavy emphasis
on advertising outside of Washington State and in digital format. In 2016, 31 states were represented, in 2017
there were 33 states represented, in 2018 there were 36 states represented, in 2019, 39 states were
represented, in 2020 50 states were represented. In 2020 our goal is to retain all 50 states for our events.
The 2021 marketing plan for Run the Peninsula is get participants to want to come out to the peninsula during
the off season. For the 2021 medal we partnered with the two local tribes, the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe and
the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe to use tribal artwork for all of the medals. This year we are very excited about
the unique medal that magnetizes together to form a wooden totem. This is a driving factor for many
participants. For many it is all about the “BLING”.

City of Port Angeles 202 1 Event Grant Fund Application Page 4
a. SOCIAL MEDIA
NODM has been diving in deep to learn how to maximize our social media efforts. For the 2021 event more
dollars and time have been budgeted to social media in order to capture more participants from outside of
Washington State and across the entire country. This has been done in the following ways:
• Social Media Expert. The NODM has recently hired a social media firm to work closely with the
Executive Director to increase the Marathon’s presence on Social Media. The importance of
social media in today’s world is critical. Your target audience is constantly on the popular social
media networks looking to see what the next event they should attend.
If done right social media marketing can prove to be really cost effective. Because as of
today, even the paid social media campaigns, such as FaceBook ads, are cheaper than other
advertising options such as search engine ads. Which means there’s a higher return on
investment.
• Will you follow us?
o Facebook NODM continues to have an active Facebook community with 5,055 “Likers.”
The Facebook “star” rating for the NODM is 4.9/5.
o Instagram @NODMarathon. Currently, the NODM has 2,328 followers.
o Twitter @nodm2613. 359 followers to date.
On December 8, 2020 – Run the Peninsula posted the new 2021 Medals. In just one week (seven days)
the event and the 2021 Run the Peninsula Series got strong results on Social Media. Although the initial
registration is not as strong as in 2020, we fell as though participants are a little more hesitant, given
COVID-19, to pre-register for events. Below are the results of the post on Facebook.
b. ONLINE MEDIA
• Videographer. In 2017 NODM started working with Matt Sagen from Heart and Passion Films. His
marketing videos have had a huge impact on marketing our event. In 2017 a 60 second video was
made, this video has been view over 600,000 times. Videos will be circulated through Social Media and
the NODM website. PLEASE TAKE 60 SECONDS TO VIEW THE DRONE VIDEO…
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 194
City of Port Angeles 202 1 Event Grant Fund Application Page 5
https://vimeo.com/238216550. We are planning on working with Heart and Passion films again in 2021
to update this video.
• Videographer. In 2019, I was able to hire local videographer, Matt Sagen to video the Elwha Bridge
Run. He made a video of the run. Please take the time to view it here: https://youtu.be/Z23EI6iK490
In 2021 the plan is to get some B-Roll video of participants running / prepping for the event. The
scenery of the Elwha Bridge will make for an amazing promotional video for years to come.
• Online Ads, Calendars, and Features. Many of the traditional print publications (running magazines)
are also providing digital advertising opportunities. While magazine subscriptions may be down for
some publishers, they are seeing a huge increase in online subscriptions.
• Mail Chimp. In house, NODM has a current database of 15,000+ subscribers who receive a monthly
newsletter from the Race Director that includes registration details, promotions, and highlights such as
race sponsors, travel planning, and race weekend details.
c. WEBSITE | nodm.com
• The NODM and RTP website continues to be a vital tool for providing event details to participants,
volunteers, sponsors, and visitors. In the fall of 2020 PAMA has contracted with a local website
development team to give NODM and RTP a new consistent look. The new websites will be up and
running in early spring 2021.. All updates and changes are done in house and is maintained by the Race
Director which assures accurate and current information.
• In addition to the event details, the website includes a Getting Here / Travel page with links to “Visit
Port Angeles,” “ Olympic Peninsula Visitor Bureau,” and the “Port Angeles Regional Chamber of
Commerce.” The page also provides “Local Suggestions” for what to do and see.
d. PRINT MEDIA
• Print Ads. The NODM uses print dollars wisely by researching the publications most likely to reach our
audience. NODM publishes print ads in a few areas including; the Coho magazine, Walk About
Magazine, and the Victoria Marathon Race Guide.
• Rack Cards2. Rack cards and posters are distributed to more than 100 running shops and clubs in
Washington, Idaho, Oregon, California, Colorado, Wyoming and British Columbia. This outreach
includes a personal letter from the Race Director and a “goody bag” with a water bottle, comp entry,
and event details.
e. EVENT EXPOS
• The PAMA Race Director and race committee attend races in other cities throughout the year to
promote the NODM. Travel to race expos is limited because of high cost, so a careful list has been
created focusing on the places where NODM can make the biggest impact. This list includes: Whidbey
Island Marathon Expo, Bellingham Bay Marathon Expo, Capital Cities Marathon, Victoria Marathon
2 See Attached 2021 Rack Card
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 195
City of Port Angeles 202 1 Event Grant Fund Application Page 6
(Canada), Seattle Marathon, Hot Chocolate Seattle and BMC Vancouver Marathon (Canada). We hope
that in 2021 we will be able to return to Expos.
• A recurring comment from folks who stop by the NODM booth: “I have always wanted to visit the
Olympic Peninsula and I usually plan my races around places I want to visit. So it looks like you might see
me at your event!”
f. EVENT SHIRTS/SWAG
• Every participant receives a race shirt with their registration. The shirt is a big deal to runners. In order
for the NODM to compete with larger marathons like the Seattle Rock n Roll Marathon (in 2020 they
are on the EXACT SAME DATE), we have to do a better job and part of this means providing a beautiful
shirt. We want our participants to wear their shirts proudly. And they do! Last year, one of our
volunteers was hiking in Palm Desert and saw a couple wearing their NODM shirts. We get reports of
shirt sightings all the time.
• The shirt design follows the new NODM and RTP brand. All shirts are printed with the event name,
location (Sequim to Port Angeles, WA) and event date.
• Thousands of runners all over the country and world are “walking advertisement” for us.
g. REGIONAL JOINT MARKETING
• NODM continues a big marketing effort toward the 7th Annual Salish Sea Series. This regional event
combines four of Western Washington’s best races: Whidbey Island Marathon (April), Capital City
Marathon (May), NODM (June), and potentially two new races in 2021 including Seattle Marathon and
Victoria Marathon. Participants enter all four races and receive discounts and a special finishers medal
at the completion of the final race.
1/21/20 LTAC Agenda Packet Pg. 196
City of Port Angeles 2021 Event Grant Fund Application Page 7
•The Race Directors from each of these high quality events formed the series in order to expand
marketing and thus increasing registration. This positive partnership keeps the spirit of competition
alive, but also has opened up more marketing and networking opportunities.
•Each race shares in the joint promotional costs, which include print ads, expo banners and online ads.
7.Do you have other event sponsors? If so, how much income do you plan to receive in total from other sponsors?
Answer:
Yes. The 2021 PAMA proposed sponsorship income is $56,000. At the time of this application, sponsor
meetings and contracts are being developed only some have been signed. Of this $56,000 sponsorship
income, the 2021 RTP Presenting Sponsor of the Elwha River Bridge 5K /10K is the Elwha Klallam Tribe and
the Olympic Medical Center. Combined, Elwha Klallam Tribe and Olympic Medical Center, they have a $4,500
sponsorship level. You can see this in the budget.
8.Is there a host hotel for your event? If yes for returning events, list the host hotel and an estimate of how many
rooms were booked last year.
Answer:
The host hotel for the event is The Red Lion. The host hotel also serves as the venue for Race Registration and
Packet Pick-up the day before the event. The NODM finish line is located right in front of The Red Lion making
this hotel a favorite choice for participants who can walk to their room for a post race shower.
The Red Lion promotes 2-3 night stays to marathon participants.We did work with the Red Lion Hotel in 2020 for
this event. However, it is a smaller event so we don’t have an actual “host hotel” and plan to work with the Red
Lion Hotel again in 2021
9.How many people have attended your event in the past? How did you obtain these figures?
Answer:
During a very difficult 2020, PAMA was a step ahead of the game and was extremely innovated and quickly
reached out to a new demographic and by doing do has almost double participation this year. In 2020, 94% of
the participants were virtual participants (this means that they can complete the runs from anywhere in the
world and at time during the year) and we realize that they may not be visiting the Olympic Peninsula. However,
all courses were set up and marked throughout the year still encouraging participants to visiting the Olympic
Peninsula to run the same course. We have had many participants that have done this. And by growing our
audience during a year of virtual events we have more participants that will want to run the events in person
for future years.

City of Port Angeles 202 1 Event Grant Fund Application Page 8
Specifically for the Elwha River Bridge Run - 2019 Participants: 581 (5K = 152, 10K = 237. Virtual = 192). In
2020 there were 1,895 (5K = 392, 10K = 249, Virtual = 1,254) from all 50 states. This was an huge increase in
participants.
These Elwha River Bridge Run are exact numbers as everyone that participants has to register online. This was
the first year of the event and only 400 medals and shirts had been ordered. The race sold out 3 days before
the event when it had to be capped at 400 participants. In 2020, we are anticipating 650 participants and we
had 1,895 participants. IN 2021, we planned from 2,400 participants.
10. What will you cut from your proposal or do differently if full funding for your request is not available or
recommended?
Answer:
The Lodging Tax Special Project Grant Funding has provided an opportunity for the NODM to develop a strong
marketing plan since the event started in 2003. The strong advertising presence in the running community has
been a major factor in the success of the event. If lodging tax funding is not available or recommended, the
marketing budget will suffer cuts that will likely affect projected attendance.
The North Olympic Discovery Marathon has an impressive track record of meeting the following criteria outlined
in the application:
• Demonstrating positive lodging impacts
• Providing a detailed marketing plan with examples and budgets
• Producing a successful tourism event for the community through a sustainable organization
• Proving event growth
We respectfully request full funding. The Port Angeles Marathon Organization is committed to bringing visitors
from outside the North Olympic Peninsula Region to attend a world class marathon event each year on the first
weekend in June. We value very much the support, partnership, and commitment from the lodging tax funding
committee and the community to do so.
In 2020, the running industry took a major hit with having to cancel all onsite races. It is going to take a while
for participants to feel comfortable to come back to onsite races.
PAMA continues to give back to the community financially to many different organizations. On a non-COVID
year PAMA gives between $20,000-$30,000 to local non-profits. It is important to be able to give back to the
community. If the full funding was not received the race director payroll would be cut. The organization truly
believes that this event is great for our community and helps to bring money back into our community.
11. What will you or your organization do differently this year that will improve upon last year’s event?
Answer:
Each year, the PAMA Race Director and race committee perform an in-depth post event evaluation. In summary,
the list below provides a few highlights of the areas that the NODM is proudest of and will continue to improve
and build upon.
• PAMA is currently in the process of creating a new look for both of our websites (www.nodm.com
& www.runthepeninsula.com) This will help participants find the information more easily.
• If the funding allows we will be working with, EventGrow. EventGrow is a company that specifically
works with endurance events. They help to drive more registrations, more revenue and more
impact. We had planned to do this in 2020, but due to COVID-19 we decided to hold off until 2021.

Here are the improvements for the 2021 Run the Peninsula and North Olympic Discovery Marathon
• Amazing new medal design that incorporates Elwha Tribal Artwork and Jamestown S’Klallam Tribal
Artwork.
• ALL MEDALS ARE MADE IN THE USA!!
• For the Elwha River Tribal Run Instead of have shirts as a giveaway, participants will be receive a one
of a kind reversible RTP running buffs with local artist, Makayla DeScala, artwork. You can only get this
hat by running in the event.
• Last year we ordered our shirts from a vendor out of Portland, OR. This year we are doing all of our
apparel locally and keeping our dollars local.
• This year we ordered an at total 2,400 medals per event.
12. Will the event necessitate the obstruction or use of the public right of way and/or public utility hookups?
☒Yes ☐ No.
If yes, what facilities will be used?
Answer: See answer #4
13. Does this event take advantage of innovative opportunities?
Answer:
There are two main innovative opportunities that the NODM takes advantage of:
1. Promoting local artists has always been a huge importance to our organization. This year we will be
continuing to contract with local artist Todd Fisher for the North Olympic Discovery Marathon
Artwork. In addition his artwork is used on the medals that people take all across the country.
2. For the kids marathon we hold a medal design contest3. Local kids have the opportunity to create the
Kids marathon medal that is distributed to all kids at the finish line on the day of the kids marathon.
The winner has the opportunity to work with the race director of the North Olympic Discovery
Marathon and the medal design team at Ashworth Awards to fine tune, approve and finalized the
kids marathon event medal.
There are two main innovative opportunities that the Elwha Bridge event takes advantage of:
1. Promoting local artists has always been a huge importance to our organization. For the event this
year we reached out to local artist, Makayla DeScala, as one of her pieces of artwork reminded us of
the Elwha River. We asked her if we could partner and make her artwork into our running buff that
participants would receive for participating in this event. Working together we are able to give out
one of a kind RTP reversible running buffs to all participants of the event.

2. 2021 Run the Peninsula Race series medal. We are very excited to team up with two of the local
tribes, the Elwha Klallam Tribe and the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe. All of medals magnetize to a
wooden stand to form a tribal totem. If you do all 5 races you will receive the wooden totem that will
showcase your impressive accomplishment.
3. In additional local screen printer, Joseph Stride (Convergence Design-Port Angeles) printed all 2,000
Run the Peninsula Series Shirts. Local Artist, Nicole Phillips (Bet azed Creative – Port Angeles) does all
of the Graphic Design / Artwork for all of PAMA events.
14. Does this event benefit the entire county?
☒Yes ☐ No.
If yes, please explain how:
Answer:
Yes, NODM event benefits the city and the county. For the first weekend in June, the North Olympic Discovery
Marathon brings in over 10,000 people to our community. These people include participants, family and friends
of runners, spectators from the region, volunteers, sponsors and vendors. The event brings approximately $2.0
million in tourism related activities to Clallam County each year (non-COIVD year).
Yes, RTP event benefits the city and the county. Based on the Dean Runyan4 every person that comes to
Clallam County for outdoor activity for the day spends on average $151.40. This is broken down to $31.80 on
transportation, $52.30 on food and 67.30 on other expenses. Although our event may not put as many heads
in beds it does bring in people from outside of the county that spend money. Based on our data and people
that came from out of the area for the day the total economic impact that our event had was $19,984.80.
15. How does this event support or involve local businesses or organizations?
Answer:
Buying Local: Our event supports local business and organizations as much as we can. We hire local for the
following expenditures:
• Videographer – Matt Sagen, Heart & Passion Films
• Branding & Art Design – Nicole Philips - Betazed Creative
• Shuttle Busses – Blackball Ferry
• Gear Busses – Port Angeles School District
• FInishline Food – Locally purchased food including Sunny Farms and Dairy Fresh

17.Please provide the below details on this event’s annual budget:
18.How does this proposal demonstrate use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816? Please
be specific and cite code directly.
Answer:
PAMA directly demonstrates the use of Lodging Tax Funds in accordance with RCW 67.28.1816 in the following
ways:
(1)(a) – Tourism Marketing – PAMA attracts participants from all over the country. Many participants visit the
Olympic Peninsula for the first time for our events.
(1)(b) - The marketing and operations of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists; We only use
our Lodging Tax Fund dollars for marketing. None of our funds received goes towards operations.
(2)(b) - (b)(i)(ii)(iii) of this subsection, applicants applying for use of revenues in this chapter must provide the
municipality to which they are applying estimates of how any moneys received will result in increases in the
number of people traveling for business or pleasure on a trip: PAMA has direct data (from online registration
platform) of the exact location that all participants travel from. This helps to give accurate data and show that
participants are traveling from outside of the area and staying in paid accommodations. We have participants
from all over the United States and on average 4-6 different countries represented.
