We will do our best to prepare for that day’s weather however; we suggest vendors dress in layers that allow for variations in temperature and for their own comfort. If you have ANY food items for sale at your booth, you MUST have a booth in the cafeteria. Please inform us if you are selling any food items. Because of this, booth space in the cafeteria for vendors not selling food it limited and is on a first come first serve basis.
