With the beginning of the New Year brings non-stop thoughts of Riverfest to our brains. Well... atleast to those of us that work at Wichita Festivals, Inc. - we eat, sleep and breathe Riverfest until its conclusion in May!
But what we hope is that with the ringing in of the New Year, we can get Riverfest on your brain, as well!
We are initiating a new program this year for the Festival in regards to buttons ... it's called the Riverfest Show & Save Button Program.
The goal: More participation in Riverfest by local retailers by either selling buttons at their place of business or by offering a discount (of their choice) to customers who enter their store wearing a Riverfest button.
We are excited about the possibilities with this program - the button was already doing good things for Riverfest patrons, but now, it's going to do even more - thanks to Wichita retailers!
If you are interested in participating in this program, the logistics, the process, the perks, etc., just leave a comment below or send me an e-mail at allyson@wichitafestivals.com. I can send you all the information you will ever need!
Countdown to Riverfest 2010: 115 days!

Our Office is a Buzzin'!
Hello fellow blog readers!
Our apologies for our departure in blogging over the past month. Our office was closed from December 24 - Jan. 3. We all returned this Monday ready and prepared for a super busy next four months!
Just a few notes...
1) We will be announcing the poster artwork for Riverfest 2010 on Thursday, February 4. We are going to try and switch our announcements up this year. They are usually a press conference type of setting, but this year, we will using U-Stream TV to get the word out on the poster artwork, the announcement of Admiral Windwagon Smith and the Prairie Schooner Mates as well as the announcement of new events at Riverfest.
We hope to make this more public-friendly by allowing everyone (that means YOU!) to view the announcements live as they are happening!
We have a few kinks to work out before our first run on February 4, but we hope to have a link on the front page of our Web site as well as listed on our Facebook and Twitter pages so you can view the announcements!
2) We will be announcing the musical entertainment in February, which is very exciting! It is quite a process to book great acts, so we hope that you all are as excited about the bands as we are!
3) We have alot more great announcements to come, but for now, I must stay hush-hush. We at WFI hope that you all had a wonderful Holiday season and a Happy New Year ... and hope that you are staying warm in this wickedly cold weather!
Just another reason to get excited about the warmth of May, right?
