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).

activity.

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.
In 1978, more than 2,000 people from all corners of the US and several Canadian provinces
traveled, some with their boats and tools, to the first nationally recognized Wooden Boat Festival
in Port Townsend. Today, the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival is the most education -
packed and inspiring wooden boat event in the world. Featuring hundreds of wooden vessels,
dozens of indoor and outdoor presentations and demonstrations, a who's who of wooden boat
experts, and thousands of wooden boat enthusiasts —there's something to do, someone to meet,
or a boat to board at every turn.
The Wooden Boat Festival (WBF) continues to draw visitors from around the world to Jefferson
County. Over the Festival's almost 50 years, Jefferson County has grown from an economically
underdeveloped rural area to a major cultural and tourism destination. Out of town visitors have
brought new dollars to our community's businesses - and a thriving tourism and hospitality
industry has grown up around these vibrant events. Many people who visit Jefferson County for
the first time attending the Wooden Boat Festival later become residents of our area!
A challenge for WBF (as well as LTAC!) in recent years has arisen from this success: all the
hotel rooms in Jefferson County routinely fill up for summer special events. With this limited
capacity, it has not only been difficult for us to grow our out of town Festival audience, but the
high demand has driven hotel prices way up - outside the reach of the volunteers, tradespeople,
young families, and retirees who are the lifeblood of Wooden Boat Festival.
This year we are excited to expand our management of lodging at Fort Worden that will increase
overnight inventory for the Wooden Boat Festival and provide an option that is within the reach
of more people.
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?
Building upon our own management system for lodging at Fort Worden over the 2025 Festival,
we propose to maintain and fill the established 40 Fort Worden dormitory rooms. We will be
updating electronic management systems, web interface, and infrastructure to make this possible,
as well as again investing in marketing to make out of town audiences aware of this new room
availability.
5 1 P a g e
WOODEN BOAT FOUNDATION Page 21 of 41
RECEIVED 09/10/25
Page 6 of 25
Every year we get dozens of inquiries about overnight accommodations that don't break the
bank. We are excited about the response our Fort Worden accommodations received during the
2025 Festival and hope Jefferson County LTAC will support this continued initiative to
strengthen our local tourism infrastructure.
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)?
The Wooden Boat Festival supports the Highest Priority listed as #2 on Page 9: "The marketing
and operations of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists, " as listed in the RCW
is our second priority, continuing years of investment in event marketing. Wooden Boat Festival
is a key tourism event for Jefferson County and a facet of local cultural identity.
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. If an event, the date of the event:
September I Ith-13th, 2026
The timeline for the tourism promotion activity you are proposing (e.g. May
through July, 226).
January through August, 2026
c. Target Audience
Our target audience for this initiative is individuals who are invested in the Wooden Boat
Festival but for whom affordable overnight accommodations have been a barrier to attendance.
As in 2025, these audiences include, but are not limited to:
• Prospective volunteers who bring expertise and energy to our community but haven't
been able to afford to stay overnight.
• Families and retirees from Seattle and Tacoma seeking an affordable weekend getaway
with engaging activities for all ages.
• Craftspeople and mariners working throughout the region who have been unable to attend
due to housing affordability constraints.
• New attendees who have not been able to visit Jefferson County due to low overnight
availability.
d. Promotion methods you intend to use to reach the target audience.
61 a g r
WOODEN BOAT FOUNDATION Page 22 of 41
RECEIVED 09/10/25
Page 7 of 25
• Social Media Promotion: Using our Instagram and Facebook channels, which have a
combined following of over 25,000. In 2024, our social media campaigns reached over
450,000 people. Woodenboat.org received over 176,095 views with 81,188 unique users. We
expect to have exceeded those figures in 2025, but numbers are still in calculation since the
festival was this past weekend.
• Paid Print Advertising targeting our audiences through:
o Washington State Ferries rack card distribution.
o WoodenBoat Magazine.
0 48°North Magazine.
• Special Postering Campaign: A focused postering initiative in Seattle, executed through Keep
Posted, which will distribute WBF posters in neighborhoods ranging from Edmonds to
Tacoma, and from Madrona to Issaquah, reaching diverse and new audiences.
• Paid Radio Campaign: A paid radio campaign on KUOW, Seattle's NPR station, which
reaches more than 400,000 listeners per month. This is an effective way to engage cultural
tourists, lifelong learners, and people curious about the maritime world.
• Cascade PBS: Paid advertising for digital and TV ads that will reach our target audiences.
• Digital Marketing: Updated webpages & emails highlighting the housing opportunity
• Program Distribution: Distribution of the WBF program, including this housing opportunity
via our 48N distribution network that reaches from Portland to Victoria.
e. Describe how you will promote overnight stays at Jefferson County lodging
establishments.
This partnership initiative focuses on further developing overnight stays in group housing at Fort
Worden. Our efforts will be toward filling these rooms and keeping this community resource
open for summer events. This will result in increased economic impact for Jefferson County.
f. If you intend to collaborate with another agency or non-profit to provide these
services, please state the name of the organization and describe the nature of the
collaboration:
We will be collaborating with local and state media, as in years past. Importantly, we will be
working cooperatively with Fort Worden in the current absence of a Fort Worden Hospitality
entity.
5. How will you measure the effectiveness of your promotion, program, facility, event
or activity?
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.)
7 1 P a g t
WOODEN BOAT FOUNDATION Page 23 of 41
RECEIVED 09/10/25
Page 8 of 25
We will document and report the economic impact of the Wooden Boat Festival by estimating
the number of attendees traveling from outside Jefferson County. By tracking ticket sales from
out -of -county visitors, we can calculate the economic benefit to the community, as these
individuals contribute to Jefferson County's economy by utilizing local lodging facilities, dining
at restaurants, and purchasing goods and services from local businesses.
This information, along with our marketing data and visitor insights, will be compiled and shared
with the County to demonstrate the economic impact generated by out-of-town visitors attending
the Festival, ensuring compliance with state reporting requirements.
6. What economic impact can we expect in Jefferson County from your proposed
promotion, program, facility, event or activity?
a. Actual or estimated number of tourists at your event/facility last year (2025):
We estimate that the Wooden Boat Festival attracted approximately 21,000 attendees in 2025
(final numbers are still being tallied). Of these attendees, at least 40% were new first-time
visitors.
b. Estimated number of tourists who will attend your event/facility this year (2026):
We are aiming for a modest increase in attendance for 2026, targeting around 22,000 attendees.
We also hope to increase out-of-town and out-of-state visitors by 5%.
c. Projected economic impact in Jefferson County from your event/facility (e.g.
number of tourists who will stay overnight in Jefferson County -based lodging
establishments; economic impact for Jefferson County restaurants, community
facilities, amenities, events, and businesses).
Based last year's 13,500 attendees, with 65% traveling from more than 50 miles away, we
project approximately 8,775 visitors from outside the immediate area. With an average per -
person trip spend of $266, this translates to an estimated economic impact of $2,334,150 for
Jefferson County, benefiting local lodging establishments, restaurants, community facilities, and
other businesses. We expect numbers to increase in 2026.
7. Describe your organization's area of expertise. Do you provide a unique service?
Putting on Wooden Boat Festival is a complex year-round effort that requires a deep connection
to the global maritime community, close collaboration with local and regional businesses and
vendors, coordination with local government and regulatory agencies, and oversight of staff and
volunteers numbering more than 600. It truly takes a village to put on this event, and Wooden
Boat Foundation is uniquely positioned to sustain and grow it.
For this special overnight accommodations effort, we will not only be leveraging the expertise of
our marketing team, who has grown our reach both in -person and online significantly in recent
years, but also the expertise of our team of hospitality professionals at the Swan Hotel, which we
acquired in 2022. The Swan of course routinely sells out for WBF a year or more in advance.

But our hospitality team is uniquely positioned to take on the registration needs presented by this
partnership with Fort Worden, whose systems are mainly set up for group sales.
3. Background Information about Your Organization
Attach the following items to your proposal in the order listed:
(Note: To be considered by the Committee, all of the listed information must be included with
your proposal.)
Attachments:
• Projected 2026 promotion, program, facility, event or activity budget including income and
expenses. (Please note: if an LTAC award is granted at a different than requested, you will
be asked to submit a revised budget prior to contract approval.)
• 2025 Budget and Actual income and expenses year to date statement(s) (for example, Profit
& Loss and Balance Sheets).
• List of names and addresses of the organization's Board of Directors as of the date the
proposal is filed. Also, if the proposal is for the marketing of an event and there is a
chairperson for the event (either volunteer or paid), list that individual's name, address and
phone number.
• If you desire, you may provide samples of promotional and/or design materials such as
brochures, artist renderings, graphics, etc. (recommended 1-10 samples.)
Note: Staff will verify Incorporation status of the non-profit agencies who submit service
proposals by checking the Washington Secretary of State's on-line corporation records.

4. Proposal Evaluation Criteria
.Jefferson County Policy Statement for Use of the Lodging Tax
Jefferson County's Lodging Tax Fund will be the primary source of county funding for activities,
operations, and expenditures designed to increase tourism. The County does not make any multi-
year commitments with Lodging Tax funds. However, service providers are not limited or
prohibited from making repeat annual requests of the same nature. The County intends to maintain
a reserve in the Fund, and will assess on an annual basis how much of the Fund to appropriate in
a given year. The Jefferson County Commissioners have created a Lodging Tax Advisory
Committee to conduct an annual process to solicit and recommend Lodging Tax funded services
for the County Commissioners consideration. Jefferson County will only consider proposals for
use of the Lodging Tax from public and non-profit agencies.
The Fund will ONLY be used for the following purposes:
The promotion of emerging or on -going tourism events, facilities, and activities by
government or non-profit agencies so as to attract and draw tourists to unincorporated
Jefferson County from outside Jefferson County.
2. Operation of a tourism promotion agency (such as a visitor and convention bureau);
3. The marketing of special events and festivals designed to attract tourists to unincorporated
Jefferson County from outside Jefferson County.

5. Background Information
Jefferson County's Lodging Tax
The Lodging Tax is an excise (sales) tax authorized by State law in RCW 67.28, Public Stadium,
Convention, Arts and Tourism Facilities.
In 1998, the State Legislature amended Chapter 67.28 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW)
to allow local governments to assess an additional 2% tax on lodging for tourism promotion and/or
tourism -related facilities (sometimes referred to as "the new 2%"). In April 1999, the County
Commission, by Ordinance, increased the County's Lodging Tax from a 2% to a 4% tax as allowed
by RCW 67.28.
Jefferson County's Lodging Tax Advisory Committee
Per RCW 67.28.1817, the State requires that local governments collecting the Lodging Tax
establish a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee consisting of at least five (5) members:
The Chair —a member of the County Commission or their designee
2 members — representing the lodging industry
2 members — representing activities authorized to be funded by said tax
The Committee's role is advisory in nature, with the Committee's purpose being to advise the
County Commissioners. The Committee must select the candidates from amongst the applicants
applying for use of revenues and provide a list of such candidates and recommended amounts of
funding to the County Commissioners for final determination.
In 1998, the Jefferson County Commissioners created such a Committee, and asked the Committee
to establish an annual process to solicit and review proposals for tourism services eligible for
lodging tax funding. Committee members are appointed by the County Commissioners as part of
the County's regular advisory committee appointment process.
