Good question. I think a recreational event is a pretty broad term. It could refer to a sporting event, a festival in your city, a fair, and maybe even concerts. It could also refer to town wide events like the previously mentioned fairs/festivals, but also could include something as simple as a town wide cookout, holding your own parties and so on.I know that many permitting obligations are determined by the event's location, but is there a general idea of what might qualify as a recreational event in the first place?
