Board sets local band end time at 6:30 p.m., discusses iHeart sponsorship and stage logistics
Summary
After discussion about band overlaps and stage logistics, the board set local band programming to end at 6:30 p.m. to clear time for headline acts; members also reviewed iHeart sponsorship and agreed to coordinate promotions.
The board reviewed entertainment plans and an iHeart sponsorship package that includes radio, social and direct-mail promotions. Several organizers confirmed headline act Chris Cruz and discussed band start and end times, stage locations and how to avoid long intermissions. Speaker 3 led the discussion and proposed earlier local-band start times to create a predictable transition to headline acts.
After debate about overlap, sound and load‑out logistics, the board voted to set local‑band end times at 6:30 p.m. to allow a one‑hour buffer before headline performers. The chair noted iHeart’s sponsorship typically includes ad buys and social posts; staff will coordinate with iHeart on content and timing for promotions.
Next steps: staff to finalize band contracts with the agreed times, confirm stage allocations and provide a schedule to the public-relations contact for iHeart and the fair website.
