Several reasons; I think it was a combination of things. There are now brick pavers where a lot of the squares were. The space that we used to have is not there anymore. It has never been a big money maker for the school - it takes a lot of work to make it happen, we call on a lot of the same businesses to sponsor who just gave to the race, so taking it a little bit West, we open up the door for more sponsors, more artists - we'll see how it goes. I am excited to see how it will work at Grand Blvd! I am working on a great sponsorship idea right now!
With the budget cuts happening in education, we have to try to make up the difference as much as we can!
If any Artist is interested in participating, you can pm me and I will pass the info on to Billie.
