Sunshine Community Health Center is planning a Community Celebration on August 12th, 2023, and we want you to be a part of this event. We hope to offer live music, food vendors, local artists/vendors, resource exhibits and if everything falls into place, host our first annual Sunshine 5K run/walk/bike. There are a lot of moving parts to plan a community event of this size and we appreciate any feedback and support you have to offer.
Date: August 12th, 2023
Time: Please note that this timeline may change as we get closer to the date and determine who will be involved in this engagement opportunity.
Vendor Check-In: 10:00 AM
Event Begins: 11:00 AM
Music: 12:00 PM
Event Breakdown: 4:00 PM
Vendor/Exhibitor Information
We are looking for local vendors and exhibitors that provide services to our Northern Valley Communities (Petersville, Trapper Creek, Sunshine, Talkeetna, Caswell, Willow, and parts of Houston). This is not limited to healthcare services, and we want to extend our invitation to as many exhibitors as possible. Sunshine Community Health Center is a federally funded facility, and we are committed to accessible, proactive, quality health care, promoting community wellness through outreach and education. If you can, we are asking our vendors to provide our community members with a discount during the event, but we understand if you cannot. We appreciate your ability to serve our communities.
Vendor Fee: FREE
Vendor Space: Vendors will be provided a 10x10 space and will be asked to bring their own tables, chairs, and canopy tents. We hope to fit 2-3 food trucks in our parking lot and will provide the space needed to accommodate your vehicle. We will not provide electricity and we’d rather not have generators so we can hear the music but if you cannot provide your service without one of these two, please let us know and we can try to accommodate you.
Musicians
We are hoping to have speakers and a microphone set up so we can have a few different musicians play during the event timeline. If you are interested in having some time on the microphone, please email Sierra Winter Smith directly at ssmith@sunshineclinic.org

Please note that Sunshine Community Health Center is a smoke-free and alcohol-free facility. We cannot host alcohol, tobacco, and/or marijuana distributors at this community event and cannot permit any use of these substances on the property. Thank you for your understanding and promotion of healthier communities. Space will be filled on a first come first serve basis. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
We look forward to hearing from you,
