Have a question?
| Q. | I
would like to set up a food stand at the Arena during the Derby. How do I go
about getting permission? |
||||||||||||||||||||||||
| A. | First of all, you
will need to have approval from the Lions Club Committee and will have to meet
with them prior to setting up at the Arena. Be sure and meet with the Committee
at least 2 weeks prior to the Derby. Contact Alan Schlimmer at 509-677-5667 or
Mike Doyle at 509-677-8846. Your organization must be non-profit and from the local area (Lind, Ritzville, Washtucna). An Adams County Health card is required. Your stand must be self-contained, furnishing your own water, supplies, etc. Set up and clean up is totally your responsibility. |
