City of Lacey seeks vendors, outlines spring recreation schedule and playbook change
Summary
The City of Lacey is inviting food, artisan and commercial vendors to its annual Spring Fund Fair at Saint Martin's University in May; spring program registration opens March 5 and the Parks, Culture and Recreation seasonal playbook will no longer be produced.
The City of Lacey is inviting food, artisan and commercial vendors to participate in its annual Lacey Spring Fund Fair at Saint Martin's University in May; the exact day in May was not specified. The city is also seeking sponsors and organizations to host activities in the event's Kids World and STEAM Fair, and directs interested parties to the Parks, Culture and Recreation website to apply.
The announcement matters to local small businesses, artisans and nonprofit groups because the event provides a public marketplace and exposure tied to family-oriented programming. It also signals a change in how the city shares program information for the coming season.
Registration for Lacey Parks, Culture and Recreation spring programs opens online and by phone on Wednesday, March 5, at 9 a.m., the city said. The department also said it will stop producing a seasonal printed playbook that previously offered an overview of classes and programs; instead the city plans to publish an online sneak peek of offerings on Thursday, Feb. 20 via the parks website.
The Spring Fund Fair announcement specifically invited vendors to apply to sell food, crafts or other commercial goods, and asked local businesses and organizations to propose activities for the event's kids-oriented programming, called Kids World, and for a STEAM Fair. The city pointed applicants and potential sponsors to its Parks, Culture and Recreation web pages for application and sponsorship information.
City materials emphasized that the Spring Fund Fair and registration information are available on the Parks, Culture and Recreation website but did not provide the exact May date for the fair or additional details such as booth fees, application deadlines or contact names. Those details were listed as "not specified" in the announcement and are available via the city's online event pages.
