Craft Attack!

Some of our fellow NC Etsians - the Hornet's Nest team in Charlotte - are hosting a craft show later this year - Craft Attack!
Sounds like they've got a pretty great setup - and the booth sitting service for vendor breaks sounds delightful (and coffee & donuts - yummers!)
details are as follows:

This is an outdoor show, organized by the Hornet’s Nest Chapter of the North Carolina Etsy Street Team. You do not need to be a member of Etsy or the street team to participate.

The show will be held, rain or shine, on Saturday, October 11, 2008 in Independence Neighborhood Park (the large side). The park is located at 300 Hawthorne Lane, Charlotte, NC 28204.

Show hours are 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM. No resale, ready made items, imports, or retail items are permitted.Jurying will be done so that there is a good variety of merchandise.

We will provide:
 the park and 10 X 10 booth space,
 free parking,
 port-a-john,
 booth sitting services for vendor breaks,
 coffee and donuts during set-up,
 bottled water for vendors, and
 promotion/advertising.

You provide the tent and booth setup, your wonderful handmade items for sale and a great attitude.
Vending spaces are 10 X 10 for a fee of $65.00.
Application deadline is July 18, 2008.
Please send an email to carolina.etsy [!at] gmail.com or convo SnitchesGetStitches or Happywhosits for an application!

By the way, Independence Park is a beautiful park in a scenic part of Charlotte. Lots of foot traffic AND we will provide lots of promoting beforehand.
We look forward to having people from fellow street teams apply to be part of our show. Plus, others that are NOT part of Etsy are encouraged to apply!
