DOOR BADGES: (Please wear badges at all times during this event)
Each exhibitor will be issued three (3) door badges to be used by their workers only. These are for your workers only - not friends and relatives attending the Fair. These passes will be honored at the back of the building ONLY. If extra passes are needed, ask for them at the Information Booth.

BOOTH SPACES:

• Extra tables 8’ or 6’ can be purchased for $10.00 each during move-in or in advance.
• Certain food items and baked goods will be allowed to be sold at this Fair. However, if you plan to sell such items, please let me know before the Fair to determine if it is an eligible item. A charge of $100.00 will be applied to your booth rent for the two days along with charge of10% of your total sales. This amount must be turned in at the end of the show or will allow one week following, IF THIS ITEM IS AN EAT ON THE SPOT TYPE ITEM (CANDY, COFFEE, NUTS, ETC.)

• No pinning or sewing or attaching to the drape itself. No drapes can be removed unless you are on outside wall.
• No helium balloons allowed in building.

SUB-LETTING:
You cannot rent part of your booth to another exhibitor. If more than one person is occupying a booth, list all names on the contract.
ADVERTISING MATERIALS & DISPLAYS:
No signs or advertisements may extend into the aisles or higher than the 8’ back wall. You must keep your material confined to the area of your booth. Nothing can be displayed outside of the booth area or corners. This causes problems with the fire regulations for the building.

THERE IS NO SMOKING ALLOWED IN THE CONVENTION CENTER.

CHILDREN MUST BE KEPT IN YOUR BOOTH:
We ask that you do NOT bring children with you during move-in hours. If they must accompany you during Fair hours, you will be required to keep them in your booth with you.

BOOTHS MUST HAVE ITEMS HAND CRAFTED FOR SALE:
We will not allow just a display with a party plan, sign-up or retail items. By signing this contract you have agreed to these requirements. We have several non-hand crafted booths in the show – these have grandfathered into the show.

NO EARLY MOVE OUTS! MUST BE IN SHOW BOTH DAYS!
It is agreed that reservations may be cancelled, but booth rent will not be refunded if it is 60 days or less prior to the opening of the event. IF YOU NEED TO CANCEL I WILL NEED A LETTER ASKING FOR A REFUND FOR OUR RECORDS AGAIN 60 DAYS PRIOR TO THE OPENING DAY OF SHOW.

YOU WILL HAVE PRIORITY TO YOUR SAME LOCATION FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR, PROVIDED THAT FULL PAYMENT IS RECEIVED BY SATURDAY AT CLOSE OF SHOW. SUNDAY ALL BOOTH LOCATIONS NOT TAKEN WILL NOT BE HELD FOR PRIORITY, THEY WILL BE OPEN TO ANYONE.

DOOR PRIZES:
We ask PLEASE that one item be donated for each booth. These items will be used as door prizes for both days of the Fair. Please attach card or note paper with name and booth number on your door prize items.

We ask that the exhibitors DO NOT register for the door prizes; that is a bonus for those that pay to attend the show.
