Welcome and Thank You for being a vendor at our April 27th show at Rutledge Elementary School (7480 Rutledge Pike, Rutledge, TN 37861). Your exact location will be given to you when you come in for setup. You will need to check-in at the Chamber of Commerce table, located outside on the covered porch to the right of the main doors. This is where you will be given your assigned booth location.
First, WE DO NOT PROVIDE TABLES AND CHAIRS, and WE DO NOT HAVE ANY FOR RENT.
We are encouraging everyone to donate non-perishable food/s (to our food drive) at the event. We are not doing door prizes for this show. It is not required to participate, but appreciated. Donations are to be brought on Saturday, April 27th and left at the Chamber of Commerce table located on the covered porch to the right of the main doors.
Early Setup If you are going to be inside, you can setup early on Friday, April 26th, from 7pm to 9pm. The doors will be locked at 9pm and will remain locked until 6am on Saturday, April 27th.
Regular Setup You will setup Saturday, April 27th, starting at 6am but you must be finished setting up and ready to sell by 8:30 am. ONCE YOU HAVE UNLOADED YOUR VEHICLE (do not wait until you are setup) YOU MUST MOVE YOUR VEHICLE TO THE BACK OF THE BUILDING. This is so that our customers have space to park.
We will have people to help with unloading/loading and getting your items to/from your booth.
NOTES 1. Vendors are REQUIRED to remain setup from 9 am to 4 pm to ensure the event is a success. 2. NO smoking or vaping inside the school (if you are caught doing so you will be escorted to your vehicle immediately). 3. You must clean your area before you leave. 4. NO PETS ALLOWED. 5. If you bring children, they are required to stay in your booth and supervised at all times. 6. Food vendors will be located in the driveway beside the school so that their generators are not so disruptive and loud.
Also, this is a rain or shine show. So even if the weather shows rain, the show will go on. We do not do refunds.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at (713) 818-5149 or Bob at (865) 210-5283.
