SCG in the palm of your hand, take the festival wherever you go

The Independence Chamber of Commerce is launching a new mobile application allowing festival-goers to have Santa-Cali-Gon with them year-round. The app will be updated with festival news before, during and even after the festival is over.  This will also tie into the Santa-Cali-Gon Days® social media websites.

The mobile app will feature entertainment and stage schedules as well as an interactive map. The map will include a full vendor list with descriptions and product lists for each booth and a geotargeting feature to help users find specific booths.

For a free download of the Santa-Cali-Gon mobile application, visit www.santacaligon.com and click on the cell phone on the home page.
