Cherry Festival Officials Seek Ideas, Feedback

By Beth Milligan | Oct. 12, 2017

National Cherry Festival officials will host multiple "Conversation with Pie" events next week to solicit public feedback on the event and ideas for improving future festivals.

Festival staff and board members will be available October 16, 18 and 19 from 3pm to 6pm at both Grand Traverse Pie Company locations in downtown Traverse City. Members of the public are invited to drop by during those times to enjoy a slice of pie, share thoughts on how the 2017 National Cherry Festival went, and provide ideas on how the festival can improve in future years.

“We want to hear your ideas on how to celebrate our most prized fruit and the festival’s amazing history," says NCF Executive Director Kat Paye. "Should we bring back an event? Do something new? Please help us decide!”

Grand Traverse Pie Company is located at 525 West Front Street and 101 North Park Street.
