The planning and organizing for the Sequim Irrigation Festival takes place all year long. Many different people, organizations and businesses are necessary to make it come together. Planning for all the events as well as other support activities happen all year long. You can learn more about what it takes to put the festival on within the pages in this section. The people, organizations and businesses to make it happen are talked about in more detail within the Festival Committee, Sponsors and Volunteer! pages. Festival CommitteeA group of dedicated volunteers make up the Festival Committee. 2009 is the 5th year that Joe Borden has been the Festival Chairman. But it takes quite a few people to help him plan and organize the festival and all its supporting functions. This page talks more about the Festival Committee. SponsorsIndividuals and businesses within the Sequim contribute money, goods and services to help put on the festival. We cannot put on the level of festival that we do without this help. VolunteersHundreds of volunteers are necessary to make the festival happen. As the festival approaches many of the events have volunteer needs. This page discusses the role of the volunteer within the festival. Design ContestThe planning for the next year's festival begins almost as soon as the festival for the year ends. The first activity to happen is the design contest, which calls for the design of the next year's logo design as well as the button design. |
The chairwoman for the 2011 Sequim Irrigation Festival is Deon Kapetan.
