    Best thing to do is make a few connections in the area that can keep you filled in on what might be going on and who you can get in touch with for stuff. :)

    oh there may all ready be one but to cover any costs, if you are allowing people to sell some of their wares there could be a small "booth" fee. We did vendor sales at our school carnival and it was a $10 fee to sell your stuff there. Just a thought. I am on PTO w/ our school and have planned...
