Booths are assigned to sponsors based on seniority and the order payment was received. The only
sponsors who can “choose” their booth spaces are the Executive Level sponsors.
Each inline booth will be set up under a white tarp about 8’ tall on the front end, held up by metal post on
each corner.
There are no separators dividing each booth.
Booths are set up outside on top of asphalt, tightly packed gravel floor or grass, therefore the ground
might, and probably will be slightly uneven.
The roof tarps do not protect 100% from the weather, in the event of rain/hail/snow or high wind you will
need to provide with your own protective cover for your merchandise.
EACH 10’ X 10’ BOOTH WILL CONSIST OF:

One electricity outlet (you must provide your own power strip)
Wi-Fi for merchant processing only.
You are welcome to bring in additional tables and chairs if you like.
