Standard
of
excellence
met
by:
• The
Vail
Farmers’
Market
and
Art
Show
brings
the
acPve
outdoor
enthusiast
into
town.
The
guest
takes
Pme
to
explore
our
town
by
exploring
the
streets
of
Vail.
The
market
has
created
a
sense
of
community
in
Vail,
where
the
locals
can
come
and
have
lunch
and
purchase
their
produce
and
craRs
and
tourists
come
and
enjoy
the
outdoors
while
they
shop
in
Vail.
• We
offered
acPviPes
for
the
culinary,
acPve
outdoor
enthusiast
to
come.
The
2017
survey
has
found
that
hiking,
mountain
biking,
road
biking
and
travel
are
all
reasons
the
guests
came
to
Vail.
• The
Vail
Market
makes
Sundays
the
busiest
day
in
town
for
many
businesses.

Brings

Survey)
people
into
Vail
for
the
summer.
This
would
not
happen
if
there
was
not
a
Market.
We
see
families
come
each
and
every
Sunday,
the
visiPng
tourists
staying
in
Vail,
and
the
Coloradans
coming
in
for
an
acPve

Increased
business
for
the
town
of
Vail
from
June
18th
to
October
1st,
2017.
Added
value
to
the
guest
experience
in
Vail.
The
Vail
Farmers’
Market
and
Art
Show
gave
visiPng
tourists
a
reason
to
stay
in
Vail
instead
of
traveling
to
another
town
for
entertainment.
The
average
number
of
nights
stayed
by
those
staying
paid
lodging
within
Vail
was
4.9
nights.
The
Vail
Farmers’
Market
and
Art
Show
produced
approximately
6,836
room
nights.
The
esPmated
gross
revenue
generaPon
was
approximately
$13
million.
Each
year
we
have
seen
this
grow.
Colorado
visitors
have
a
reason
to
come
back
another
weekend
aRer
visiPng.
The
survey
has
found
that
89%
of
the
guests
surveyed
plan
to
come
back.
Event
Strengths
&
Weaknesses
This
year
our
markePng
of
the
Vail
Farmers’
Market
and
Art
show
included
the
following
adverPsing:
The
Vail
Farmers
Market
increased
parPcipaPon
in
all
summer
events.
We
enhanced
our
Market
by
showing
how
buying
local
truly
works.
Our
ads
encouraged
folks
to
come
to
Vail
for
mulPple
days,
for
mulPple
events
and
to
stay
overnight
in
Vail
hotels.
We
saw
this
grow
by
almost
from
3.7
to
4.9
room
nights
our
guests
are
staying.
This
added
bonus
for
the
Town
of
Vail
and
all
events
creates
a
true
community
feel
for
Vail.
Weather
is
always
a
deterrent,
but
this
year
even
when
a
bit
rainy
we
had
guests
coming.
Event
Strengths
&
Weaknesses
We
have
created
a
venue
where
the
locals
are
able
to
come
and
purchase
their
produce
and
specialty
items
and
the
tourists
can
come
and
enjoy
the
day
with
the
entertainment
and
shopping.
We
saw
this
each
Sunday;
locals
coming
back
and
the
visitors
staying
all
day.
The
restaurants
and
shops
all
say
Sunday
is
their
best
day
and
it
keeps
growing.
We
have
a
jurying
process
and
all
vendors
that
are
not
Vail
businesses
need
to
be
selling
Colorado
made
items.
The
adverPsing
that
we
have
received
from
5280,
Vail
Daily
and
social
media
has
put
our
market
out
there
for
all
of
Colorado
to
see.
Social
Media
has
created
a
huge
following
for
us
and
the
Pme
we
spend
to
give
them
informaPon
to
conPnue
coming
has
been
well
spent!
Event
Strengths
&
Weaknesses
We
listened
to
what
our
survey
has
told
us
and
we
will
be
working
on:
1.We
have
used
the
.
We
will
have
Chef
demos
at
the
market
this
year
We
will
have
more
water
staPons
next
year.
We
will
be
adding
and
changing
vendors
for
2018
• For
repeat
event,
comparison
to
past
years:
This
year
has
been
an
off
the
charts
success.
We
see
this
event
grow
every
year
and
at
this
point
we
will
make
sure
the
authenPc
Colorado
made
quality
is
enhanced
for
everyone,
including
Town
of
Vail
business
booths.
Event
Strengths
&
Weaknesses
• Total event budget: 2017 attached
• CSE funds: we received for 2017: $35,000
• Profit and loss: attached
• Funding utilization:
The CSE funds were used for both growing and marketing the event. We look for ways
to have a new interest at the market each year. This year we will be doing Chef Demos
during the market on specified weekends to showcase both the Farm to table events
and the use of produce and items available at the market. We truly want to re instill this
idea to everyone..
• In-kind sponsorship: The Vail Farmers’ Market & Art Show has in kind sponsorship from
the town for garbage pickup, The Town of Vail with help for keeping our composting
program going. We also have an in kind sponsorship with the Vail Daily.
• Cash sponsorship: We had sponsorship from Food Network, Slifer Smith & Frampton,
Renewal by Andersen, and the Town of Vail

of
not

to
get

by
the

but
by
the

are
from
Summit

Aspen,
The

MarkeFng
Efforts
The
Vail
Farmers’
Market
and
Art
Show
was
started
sixteen
years
ago
to
provide
a
sense
of
community
for
the
town
of
Vail.
Each
year
the
market
has
grown.
We
have
created
a
true
community
for
Vail.
The
locals,
the
visitors,
both
in
state
and
out
all
come
to
the
Market
and
leave
with
the
majority
of
them
happy
and
excited
to
come
back
to
Vail.
We
are
bringing
people
in
from
all
over
Colorado
and
NaPonally.
The

is
showing
the

that
have
come
that
we
have
a
true
Colorado
experience

• We are 100% compostable event (with exception of water bottles). We are 89%
compostable at the event. The vendors are fined if they are not compostable.
• We have started a program with Eagle County Water and Sanitation District to refill water
bottles at the Vail Farmers’ Market and Art Show. We will continue this, along with having
water bottles for sale at the event. We would still like for the Town and events to be
looking at a water filling station that will work 365 days a year for the Town.
• We had the compostable stations around the market all days of the market. This was
maintained by the Walking Mountains. It was a huge success and the only way the
market could do this is through the town subsidy. We thank you for this.
• Our guests used the extra summer bike racks
around the market this year and this seemed to keep many riders from riding through
town. It also promotes the use of bicycles.
