The location of this event near the Chesapeake Bay means the area will often experience strong natural elements including sun and wind.  The waterside location is great for visitors, but we strongly recommend tethered tents for shade and comfort.  Tents, tables and chairs are the responsibility of the vendor.

    Set-up/Breakdown:  All vendors must be set up and ready to sell by the start times on the day of the event.  You may drive to your space to unload, but must move your vehicle to a proper parking space by 9:30am.  No vendor is to close before the official end time of the event.  You will not be able to enter the event area with your vehicle before the end time.  If you are staying all 3 days you may leave items at your own risk.  There will be fencing, overnight security and some security cameras, but you are responsible for your own space and all tents, tables, chairs and items in your space.  We are not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged items.

    Vendor tables and booths must be occupied at all times and intact until the event closes every day.  Please make sure to take all garbage with you each at the end of the event.

    Sales Tax:  Vendors can showcase or sell, but if you do sell, we require that you collect sales tax if applicable by law.
