Activity Type: Event/Festival: Short-term activity occurring between specific dates (e.g., 4th of July celebration, local
marathon)
Facility: Municipally -owned facility that operates some or all of the year (e.g., county historical museum,
convention center)
Marketing: Activity that provides information to encourage visitors to an area; is typically a year-round activity
but may also operate for less than a full year.
Activity Date: Activity beginning and ending dates.
Actual: Persons estimated to have actually participated in event/festival or visiting a facility. For marketing activity,
enter the number of persons estimated to have actually visited area as result of marketing activity.
Projected: Persons expected to participate in event/festival or visiting a facility. For marketing activity, enter the number of
persons expected to visit area as result of marketing activity.
Methodology: Select the methodology used to estimate the actual number of visitors/participants.
Direct Count: Actual count of visitors using methods such as paid admissions or registrations, clicker counts at
entry points, vehicle counts or number of chairs filled. A direct count may also include information collected
directly from businesses, such as hotels, restaurants or tour guides, likely to be affected by an event.
Indirect Count: Estimate based on information related to the number of visitors such as raffle tickets sold,
redeemed discount certificates, brochures handed out, police requirements for crowd control or visual estimates.
Representative Survey: Information collected directly from individual visitors/ participants. A representative
survey is a highly structured data collection tool, based on a defined random sample of participants, and the
results can be reliably projected to the entire population attending an event and includes margin of error and
confidence level.
Informal Survey: Information collected directly from individual visitors or participants in a non-random manner
that is not representative of all visitors or participants. Informal survey results cannot be projected to the entire
visitor population and provide a limited indicator of attendance because not all participants had an equal chance
of being included in the survey.
Structured Estimate: Estimate produced by computing known information related to the event or location. For
example, one jurisdiction estimated attendance by dividing the square footage of the event area by the
international building code allowance for persons (3 square feet).
Other: (please describe)
Overall Attendance: Total projected and estimated actual attendance recorded for event, facility or resulting from marketing
activity.
Total Attendees Traveling 50 miles or more:
Total: Total projected and estimated actual number of visitors traveling more than 50 miles to attend event or facility.
For marketing organizations, report visitors traveling more than 50 miles to visit area.
Of total, attendees who traveled from another state or country: Of the total projected and estimated actual number of
visitors traveling more than 50 miles to attend event or facility or visit area, report projected and estimated actual number
of visitors who traveled from another state or country.
Attendees who stayed overnight:
Paid Accommodations: Total projected and estimated actual number of visitors staying in paid lodging establishments
such as hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, etc.
Unpaid Accommodations: Total projected and estimated actual number of visitors staying in unpaid accommodations
such as family and friends.
Paid Lodging Nights: Total projected and estimated actual number of paid lodging nights. One Lodging night = one or more
persons occupying one room for one night.

2. Proposal Questions
Please limit your answers to no more than one page for each question.
1. Tell us about your promotion, program, facility, event or activity and why you think it will
increase tourists traveling to and staying in Jefferson County. Include a general description
of the promotion, program, facility, event or activity including its purpose, history, etc.
Worthington Park continues to be a one -of -a -kind historical and cultural destination with an active
museum, restored Victorian mansion, outdoor performing arts theater, and ten acres of beautiful
grounds. This year we expanded our outreach by accepting responsibility for a set of kiosks around
Quilcene which depict the history and facts about the community drawing visitors to enjoy a 2 mile
walk around the community. Our museum is a nonprofit, operating without debt, staffed, and led by
volunteers — with well over 55,000 hours of volunteer effort to date. We have been expanding our
Visitor Information corner on the porch of the museum to offer maps and brochures to visitors, even
when the museum is closed. It has seen a significant increase in demand since the closure of the
Quilcene Visitor Center. Our public events continue to draw record numbers of visitors from
locations far beyond our county. These events are rooted in strategic partnerships and aggressive
promotion. This summer brought record visitation to Worthington Park from across the country and
internationally. The Park hosted a wide range of public and private events, including numerous
weddings, with happy couples and guests coming from the surrounding counties and other states.
Worthington Park will continue to attract increasing numbers of visitors to Jefferson County as a
unique location for public and private events, while celebrating the history, natural beauty, and
special character of our region.
2. If this is a continuing or reoccurring promotion, program, facility or event, describe your
organization's prior activities. If applicable, how is it different than in the past?
Quilcene Historical Museum Volunteers continued to utilize the new museum addition to help
organize and refresh the museum's exhibits, displays, and stored artifacts. We also extended our
opening days into the off season, attracting additional visitors to the area in the `shoulder'
months. Worthington Park continued to increase the number and variety of events this year, with
additional wedding, anniversary, and birthday event bookings, as well as additional and expanded
public events. All these events brought guests and vendors from outside of Jefferson County. The
restored Hamilton -Worthington House continues to be booked for overnight stays and heavily
utilized during events and for private tours. Our events tend to utilize the entire 10 acres of the
park: museum, 1915 barn, restored Victorian mansion, outdoor theatre, meadow, and scenic
grounds. Very few other event facilities provide this kind of offering. Major public events were
staged every month from June to October. The June gravel bike race, the Bon Jon Pass Out,
returned for the fifth year, attracting participants from numerous other states. This competition is
the largest of its kind in Jefferson County — taking advantage of Worthington Park's proximity to
the Olympic National Forest and trailheads. The very popular Up, Up, Up Circus returned for its
fifth year in August attracting approximately 300 visitors who picnicked in the meadow, catching
the free circus performance. The Oyster Races half marathon, 1 OK, and 5K will return to
Worthington Park in September. Registration for these races is tracking to make them the largest
SI Page
QUILCENE HISTORICAL MUSEUM Page 20 of 29
RECEIVED 09/08/25
Page 6 of 14
to date. Online promotion of the event has led to interest coming from the surrounding counties
of Clallam, Pierce, Mason, King, Kitsap, and Thurston. In October, the very popular Quilcene
Fiber Festival returns to the park featuring sheep shearing, weaving, spinning, knitting, felting,
and traditional music and storytelling. Fiber artists from across the Peninsula will be offering
their creations in the restored mansion and across the entire park. We expect this South County
event to attract the greatest amount of business and visitors to Quilcene/South Jefferson County
in 2025. The online interest in the event has almost doubled from last year, with more than a
month of promotion time remaining we hope to increase attendance by at least 30%. We
employed LTAC funding to successfully promote our overnight accommodation in the Hamilton -
Worthington House and greater Jefferson County and generate increased bookings for private
and public events. We have adjusted our promotional priorities to increase online visibility of our
events and awareness of the facility. We expect our wedding bookings to increase by 20% in
2026. We are also increasingly utilizing the Hamilton -Worthington House through the "off
season" for private events including private parties, fund-raising events, anniversaries,
memorials, and weddings in efforts to offset the increased costs of managing the park, mansion
and museum. Additionally, with the county's goal to increase off-season tourism we continue to
open the museum during the off-season months. A new endeavor for this year is the adoption of
10 kiosks spread throughout the area. This allows for a natural community walk from kiosk to
kiosk highlighting the areas unique environment and history. Our museum volunteers have also
become quite engaged with the Brinnon and Quilcene schools promoting the learning of the
history of the region and helping the schools find new ways to leverage the park and museum.
3. How does your promotion, program, facility or event support one of the Highest
Priorities or Additional Considerations listed below under "Other Criteria" (see page
9)?
All of the funds that QHM receives from LTAC are used for the two highest priorities of the BOCC's
"Other Criteria". The majority of funds are used for the development and operations of the Museum and
Worthington Park which not only provides a tourism draw of its own it also is a unique facility in
Jefferson Co which other organizations utilize for special events and festivals in south county. The
remaining funds we receive are used to host and promote the particular events we sponsor as an
organization (oyster races, fiber festival, circus...).
4. Describe how you intend to market/promote your promotion, program, facility, event
or activity to potential tourists who reside outside Jefferson County or traveling
more than 50 miles.
a. We host several public and private events throughout the year and utilize different
promotion/marketing techniques for the different events.
b. Our earliest public event tends to be our museum opening weekend and open house in April, with
other public and private events happening throughout the remainder of the year.
c. Our target audience varies depending upon event type.

Page 7 of 14
We take advantage of social media's reach by utilizing Facebook ads and groups to seek people with
interests similar to our individual events. Wedding promotion is directed towards wedding expos,
Instagram, and SEO, while also taking advantage of wedding groups on Facebook and local event
groups, such as Quimper Events Collective. Our websites continue to see significant traffic and
we've leveraged LTAC funds in the past and will continue to do so to keep them updated
hqps://www.worthingLonparkguilcene.oriz and hgps://www.quilcenemuseum.ors/
e. We advertise the Hamilton -Worthington House as a lodging option on our websites and to visitors of
the museum and park. We have a local lodging list available to our wedding couples that tour our
facility.
f. We are members of TCC, NHCCC, and often participate in OPTC meetings. Additionally, we are
members of Quimper Events Collective and appreciate their promotion of our venue and events at
expos, meetings, and on their website/social media. We also appreciate cross -promotion from
Quilcene Fair & Parade through social media. Finally, we are members of various Museum and
Historical associations (including JCHS) which helps to attract history buffs from across the nation to
our area.
5. How will you measure the effectiveness of your promotion, program, facility, event or
activity?
We use event visitation figures, vendor sales numbers, overnight stay data, and online
performance insights to measure the effectiveness of our promotions, facility, and events.
Our Facebook and Instagram statistics continue to indicate a significantly expanded reach
for all our events. We also gather data from each event inquiry to determine how they
heard about our venue.
a. Also, describe how you will document and report to the County the economic
impact from your promotion, program, facility, event or activity. (State law requires
the County to report annually to the State Department of Community Development
and Economic Trade about the number of lodging stays and economic benefit from
tourists generated by use of Lodging Tax proceeds for tourism promotion.)
We have organized our operational management to consistently provide, as required by
our contract with the county, quarterly reports of the use, services, programs, and
activities utilizing the information we have collected as described above. We also
provide quarterly financial statements detailing revenues, expenses, and cash balances.
6. What economic impact can we expect in Jefferson County from your proposed
promotion, program, facility, event or activity?
We continue to increase visitor counts to our facility each year. We also provide
employment opportunities directly and indirectly to individuals and businesses in
South Jefferson Co.

facilities, amenities, events, and businesses).
2000 visitors staying overnight in Jefferson Co. $90,000 direct economic
impact to Jefferson Co plus over $200,000 indirect economic impact.
7. Describe your organization's area of expertise. Do you provide a unique service?
Worthington Park is a one -of -a -kind, volunteer led, historical and cultural destination
with an active museum, a restored Victorian mansion (offering overnight lodging), an
outdoor performing arts theater, a kiosk community walk, a Visitor Information corner,
and ten acres of beautiful grounds. We stand out from other wedding and event venues
because of the all -encompassing settings available on our grounds. As noted above, the
variety of the events we are offering continues to expand and we are committed to
integrating our facility in a manner that draws ever increasing numbers of visitors. The
funding we are requesting for 2026 reflects our expanding mission and is structured in
detail to promote, sustain, and grow our capacity to support unique visitor experiences.
This funding will strengthen the extraordinary cultural character of our facility as we
upgrade and maintain our interpretive and exhibition offerings — and continue to expand
our narrative to growing numbers of visitors. The LTAC funds we receive allow a
unique leverage of non-profit/public partnership fostering tourism, economic
opportunities and increased quality of life for Jefferson Co. residents and businesses.
