Dear Theresa,
Pertaining to our telephone conversation, Gene Boylan has advised me, that the Carnival
that was here last December would be available to return to Marathon on Thursday,
February 28 until March 3,u.. a total of 4 days.
The Marathon Rotary Club would like to sponsor the carnival as The Rotary Club Winter
Festival. Any profit from the Winter Festival will go to the Rotary Club's scholarship
fund for Marathon High School.
We would like to have your permission and that of the BOCC to hold the festival at th:
Marathon Airport. Once asain, this is very shan notice and 1 apOlogize for it.
By copy ofthis letter to C.ommissioncr George Neugent and County Manager Jim
Robert!; I am asking them if the subject can be put un the Januafy BOCC agenda. Tritls
not asking too much, perhaps it coulcJ be bulked so you would not have to drive to Ke~1
West to present it.
1 will process all required paper work and insurance certificates and sheriff's deputies
required by the County and the City of Marathon within the next couple of weeks.
) understand that we will have to use the West End of the airport. 1 will get tosether with
you later this week OT next to go over your fencing requirements.
On behalf of our Rotary Club, 1 would like to thank you and the Cllunty Commissioners
for allowing us the use of the airpon to nuse money for our High School Scholarships.
