THE HARVEST FESTIVAL COMMITTEE WILL EVALUATE THE 2008 VENDORS FIRST.  THERE WILL BE A WAITING LIST FOR NEW VENDORS AND THEY WILL BE CONSIDERED IF A CRAFT SITE OPENS UP.

 

 

The Harvest festival will be SEPTEMBER 25th, 26th, & 27th, 2009.

 

·         Applications will not be accepted until APRIL 1st, 2009.  All returning vendors have a JUNE 15th 2009 APPLICATION DEADLINE.  IF A DEADLINE IS MISSED YOU MAY SIGN UP ON THE WAITING LIST FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR. NEW CRAFT VENDOR APPLICATIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED AFTER THAT DATE.

 

·         Fees are $85.00 (Includes the registration and camping for Friday & Saturday only.) For early arrivals, the current camping fees will represent additional payment). A check made out to I.L.D.C. must accompany the application. A confirmation letter will be sent to you after the JUNE 15 deadline.The registration fee of $85.00 is NON-REFUNDABLE, EXCEPT FOR THOSE CANCELLATION REQUESTS HAVING A MAJOR ILLNESS OR FAMILY EMERGENCY.  THESE REQUESTS WILL BE CONSIDERED BY THE FESTIVAL COMMITTEE. Grass vendor sites are $45.00 for the festival weekend. This fee must be paid prior to the festival and is also NON-REFUNDABLE. 

 

·         The vendor ID Number must now be included with your returned application.

 

 

·         All booths must be open from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, Saturday and Sunday, however, vendors can sell their crafts earlier or later throughout the festival weekend.  Once set up, a vendor may start selling.  Food booths and entertainment will be ongoing Friday night from 7-10 pm.

 

·         We continue to have problems with vendors, however, wanting to drive through the festival area during the event.  This creates both a safety hazard and an unpleasant experience to the visitor.  PLEASE NOTE: Vendors will not be allowed to drive in or out of the festival area between 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each day (Sat. /Sun).  Make sure all your picking up and dropping off is done by then.  If you need a vehicle to leave the area, park in the vendor parking area outside craft area.

 

·         HAND MADE CRAFTS CONTINUE TO BE OUR #1 CHOICE FOR DISPLAYS.  There have been, however, several handmade vendor complaints vs. retail vendors along with general public visitor comments.   A majority of hand made items can be (mixed) with a small number of retail items brought to the festival. Retail items, however, cannot include any country of origin, and/or price tags from name brand stores.  No flea market displays will be tolerated!!
