HOW TO GET THE MOST
OUT OF YOUR SUN FESTIVAL WEEK
The Alexander City Chamber of Commerce wants
you to have an amazing experience this week, so we
have a few pointers to help you plan.
• Call friends and family now and invite them
to share this week with you.
• Gather everyone around the table and look
at the event schedule. Decide what events to
attend and use a highlighter to map out your
week.
• Look to see what type of vendors are avail-
able at events and pack a water bottle or
snack if necessary.
• Like our page on Facebook for up-to-date
information and weather conditions. Any
alternative plans required will
be announced here as well
as through local media.
• Wear your sunscreen!
This year is full of opportunities
for everyone. A great deal of
planning and multiple individuals
and organizations have dedicated
their time and resources to making
this a fantastic
week. We hope you are
WOWED by the community spirit
and excitement that Sun Festival
will bring.
