[quote="Cranbury Conservative"]This e-mail was sent from the organizer's of the event... Subject: Cranbury Day As the path of this storm is so unpredictable we have decided to go on with Cranbury Day as planned. Use your judgment. If it is pouring, the event will not be happening, but if it is clearing - come on out! Because of our reliance on Township services we could not change the date. And unfortunately we cannot provide refunds as there has been a lot of out of pocket expenses for promotion and rentals. Just keep your fingers crossed and hopefully we'll see each other on Saturday.[/quote]

The Business Assoc. does not have the depth that Bellmore has to pull this off. <br /> <br />This is the first time that Cranbury Day has had this type of panic about rain. It's taken place for over 20 years now and it's never been an issue before. <br /> <br />Running a two day event takes a lot of time, resources and effort. It also involves shutting down Main St. and paying over time to police officers to control the traffic. Our town can't due this for more than one day. <br /> <br />In terms of a rain date for most people it is not an issue. The issue is for vendors who purchase the tables, for media where the event is advertised and then trying to lure the crowds. It is not a simple thing. <br /> <br />In terms of the TC involvement, they really have no say. It is a town supported event, but it is not a town run event. <br /> <br />Instead of complaining, let's all be thankful that the CBA still sees a value in this and takes the time to run it.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Fri, Sep 5 2008, 2:33 pm EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Cranbury Day & Camp Out - rain date?</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Next year, Cranbury should think about a two day street festival. That way if one day is bad (or canceled for the day), you always have the next day. <br /> <br />I use to work for a company in Bellmore, NY that took part in the Chamber of Commerce of the Bellmores yearly street fair. They started on a thursday and friday with a carnivale and the weekend added the street festival featuring all the local businesses and organizations. Never has this street fair rained out due to the two days of the street festival (I've been present when one day it rained and the festival was canceled for the day - BUT the next day it was overcast and the festival went on.) <br /> <br />I'm not saying we need to be as large as the Bellmore Festival - just extend it to a two day venue. That way the vendors and organizations do not lose any money. <br /> <br />FYI: If you are going to be on Long Island at the end of Sept., you might want to check out the Bellmore street fair.
