Community feedback will aid in growth of festival

With the extraordinary 30th anniversary of Evansville’s Freedom Festival just months away, the Growth Alliance for Greater Evansville (GAGE) is partnering with the festival committee to distribute an online community survey in order to gather information that is vital to the growth of the signature event. The survey, located at www.downtownevansville.org, will collect feedback on a variety of the festival’s events, vendors and logistics that will aid in understanding the important needs and desires of the Tri-State community.

 “We want to help the Freedom Festival’s organizing committee make this festival better than ever, and to do that we are going to need help from the public,” stated Mick Conati, Vice President of the Downtown Development Division of GAGE. “Your feedback is very important to us as it will enable the festival to offer more activities and events that the community desires, while allowing the festival to continue to grow in a positive direction.”

 As an added incentive, when you submit the online survey, you will be entered into a drawing to win a private VIP party for 25 people estimated at $275 from Jillian’s Billiards located at the District at Casino Aztar.

 The Downtown Evansville Freedom Festival will celebrate 30 years of Thunder on June 26-29 and July 4th at the riverwalk.
