Vendor Information 2008 Christmas in the Forest

The information provided below provides details of the event. You can also register online by clicking here. If you would like a downloadable copy of the information below and/or a mail in application, see below.

Dates/Times: Christmas in the Forest 2008 is scheduled for:

Friday, November 7, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Saturday, November 8, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Juried Event: This is a juried event; in other words, we invite vendors with particular merchandise of a certain quality. We seek to find unique items in order to draw more attention to our project. Please do not bring different types of items than originally agreed upon.

Fees: A non-refundable entry fee of $50 is due upon your acceptance.

St Francis Church will collect 20% of the profits from sales from vendors at the end of each day. $30.00 of the entry fee will be applied to the commission that you pay us, so there will effectively be no commission due us on your first $150 of total sales. You will be given several tally sheets to record your sales and we urge you to mark every sale for good record keeping.

Lunch passes: Each booth will receive two lunch passes to be used during the event. Since we offer lunch for customers, please plan to visit the “café” at non-peak times (from 11:00 to 11:45 a.m. or after 1:30 p.m.).

Vendor Tables: The church has a limited number of 6-ft. and 8-ft. tables available. Please let us know if you will want one and specify which size.

Space Assignments: Vendor locations will be decided purposefully by the committee, making every effort to fit each vendor to a space according to what is to be sold and to make the layout attractive to buyers and sellers. If you have specific needs, such as electrical outlet, solid or glass wall, please let us know.

Set-up: Set up will be Thursday afternoon from 1:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. Please use the back door. Some vendors with little to set up may do so early on Friday morning; the Parish Hall will be open at 7:00 a.m. on Friday. Please have your booth ready no later than 8:30 on Friday morning.

Most attractive booth: We will offer a small prize for the most attractive booth.

Clean up: We ask that all vendors pack up promptly beginning at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday. Church members will need to move all furniture back in place and must wait for vendors to pack up first. If you would like to shop at other vendors’ tables, please do so earlier in the event to avoid delaying the end of the event. Also, please do not pack up prior to 3:00 p.m.

Please contact us right away with any questions to avoid last minute misunderstandings. We have made several changes in these specifications since last year’s show. You can contact us by calling the church office or by sending an e-mail to: CITFVendorInfo@stfrancisgoldsboro.org
