2008 Environmental Fair Application

YOU are invited to participate in the 16th annual Salmon Homecoming Celebration, Friday through Sunday, September 12 – 14. Presented by the Salmon Homecoming Alliance, the Celebration is taking place in Waterfront Park on the Seattle Downtown Waterfront, just south of the Seattle Aquarium. Through environmental education and natural resource program displays, the Environmental Fair provides an opportunity to increase awareness and understanding about the importance of salmon and the watersheds upon which we all depend. It is also a great opportunity for public outreach and volunteer recruitment. In the past, interactive presentations and displays have attracted the most interest and attention and are strongly encouraged.

We are expecting 400 or more 4th-5th grade students for the School Day program on Friday morning, plus thousands of visitors over the weekend will also see the displays. Please join us for this exciting event and note, direct fund raising is not allowed.

Fee for all three days: $75 (min. suggested. Please contact us if you need a fee reduction/waiver.)
Minimum is $15 (to cover event license fees).
Sponsors ($1,000 or more): Free booth space included as sponsor benefit

Canopy covered exhibit spaces (10 ft. wide x 10 ft. deep) will be located in Waterfront Park. Set up must be accomplished by 9:30 a.m. Friday, September 12 to accommodate the school day program. Tables must be staffed at all times during the hours of 10am–5pm on Friday and 11am-6pm Saturday and Sunday. Event hours will go later, and although there is security on site, your display/booth supplies should be secured or removed each evening. Displays must be removed from the premises before 10 p.m. Sunday, September 14. The Salmon Homecoming Celebration assumes no responsibility for your display.

Up to one table and two chairs will be available to borrow from the event stock. Please indicate on your application if you will be requesting use of this equipment. Please be sure to provide your own hand truck, carts, etc. for loading and unloading.
