       fund, or to a specific Fair activity or improvements to a specific building as designated by donor.
       Proper accounting procedures will be used to track donations designated to certain fair

       expenditures, then designated expenditures will be determined and accounted for by the FAC.
       Donations for illegal activities will not be accepted.

       Sponsorship: A sponsorship is when a person or organization, is responsible for, or makes a pledge

       determined and accounted for by the FAC. Sponsors shall not require any specific action or promise
       by the FAC, or the BOCC.

       Contracts: All contracts will be given to Risk Management and reviewed by County Civil Prosecuting
       Attorney and signed by Okanogan County Commissioners. These contracts will be sent out from the

        Insurance: Okanogan County Insurance Guidelines
        The attached insurance guidelines chart provides for a general overview of requirements. Activity
        level and risk, in conjunction with our liability insurance requirements, will dictate what type of
        insurance is needed. Insurance limits and/or coverages required by the County will be determined
        by the Risk Manager and the Okanogan County Commissioners. The insurance guidelines will be
        reviewed by the Washington State Risk Pool then presented to the FAC, then the BOCC for final
        approval.

        All events are unique and therefore additional requirements and/or higher insurance limits may be
        required. On the same note, the County may require less insurance coverage depending upon the
        circumstances. Individuals are never a consideration for insurance requirements
