Hi MaryI'm forwarding here a letter of support for GAF, addressed to Farm Trails, not specifically to the City, but hopefully it might serve as an additional endorsement.
Many Thanks,
Carmen

Dear Executive Director Snyder,
On behalf of Supervisor Lynda Hopkins, I am thrilled to share with you news regarding your Community Investment Fund application to our office. We intend to fund you at the $5,000 level for your events, of which the Gravenstein Apple Fair is of course the capstone item. This item should move forward for formal approval in the next month or so at a full Board of Supervisors meeting.
We understand the challenges you have faced during COVID-19, and we hope that this support will be a big part of future success. In particular, I hope that you will be able to use the County's support to leverage financial support from other public and private institutions.
By working together, we can help to ensure the health of your organization and its essential mission.
I look forward to the return of "the sweetest fair in Sonoma County" and hope that I will be able to join you in person! I'm sure the community feels the same way.
Sincerely,
Leo Chyi
