If you volunteer your time to teach a class you will have the option of a free booth/space in the hall outside your classroom.  If you are selling items in that booth, another person will be required to maintain your booth while you are teaching your class.

Spaces— Each space will be filled as we accept each vendor on a first come first serve basis. There will be a limited number of each type of vendor so get your application in early. Each space will be marked with tape. Tables and chairs will not be included with your space so please be prepared to provide your own. You must maintain your display throughout the entire show.

Display Tables- Responsible party will not be required to maintain their display during the fair hours but will be responsible for set up and clean up as listed below.  The PTO will not be responsible for any lost or stolen items left unsupervised on the display tables.

Set-Up— Set up will begin at 7:30 am. You must have your booth customer ready 15 minutes prior to the doors opening. Booth spaces not occupied by 8:30 am will be forfeited and may be filled with stand by vendors. No money will be refunded for your failure to show up on time.

Tables— All tables are to be attractively covered. No packing materials should be visible to customers.

Clean-Up— All vendors must keep their area neat and clean at all times. When packing up and leaving vendors should leave with all merchandise, boxes, debris, etc. leaving nothing behind. You are also responsible to remove the tape marking your space. Vendors that do not remove ALL of their own trash will be assessed a $10 clean up fee. You should maintain your display through the entire show unless you completely sell out of items. No packing up until the show closes at 4:00 pm. All spaces should be totally cleaned up and vacated by 5pm.

Miscellaneous — All Vendors are responsible for collecting and submitting sales tax.  Vendors are responsible for providing their own change. The school and PTO will not be available to provide change for you.

First Come First Served!

Our Preparedness and Craft extravaganza is only a few months away so it's time to start thinking about what craft or preparedness booth you'd like to make money doing.  

Our main objective is to make this an interesting and new type of fair that will attract a wide variety of individuals.  We would like to make the booths as diverse unique as possible so we will only allow a minimal number of similar vendors.  So...first come first served!  This is good news for you since it will cut down on your competition but this also means you need to act fast to get a booth.  Please do not let this deter you however!  Send me a request for a booth with a description of your wares and we'll promptly let you know if you are in!  

We plan to advertise through signs, flyers, radio ads, Facebook, emails, word of mouth and the school district to make this an event worth investing in.  

All the proceeds will go to Discovery Elementary which is greatly needed during this time of hardship.  This is actually what gave me the idea that this is the best time to stress preparedness for our community!   (I get so excited thinking about this that I burned 2 bags of popcorn while getting wrapped up in this blurb! haha)

There will be a list of classes to come soon so keep this blog on speed dial.  Again it will be...first come..you know.  There will be early sign ups available and the classes will be 30-45mins long at $1.00 per person if you are on the list early.  It will be $2.00 at the fair.  We are working on some really fun ones for both preparedness and crafts!

I will follow in a few days with the booth info and time and other details.  Email me if you have questions.  Leanna at discoveryelementaryfair@gmail.com
