Hello!
I’m a local artist interested in applying to take part in this year’s Duck the Malls event. The posting on Olympia Power and Light said that I could find application information here, but I appear to be missing it.
If there is an application form (along with pertinent cost/deadline info), could you please let me know how to get to it? I look forward to your reply!
Thanks,
Niki Bilodeau

…and I just realized that my original post said “gmial.com” in stead of gmail. Sorry about that.
Thanks again!
