Attention Vendors at Spindale Second Saturday! For some of you this will be your first vendor setup at our event. Welcome to the community! For others, this will just be a checklist to make sure you have all the details right.
Vendor Spaces are Assigned in AdvanceEveryone has different needs for their booths, so we have a map of assigned spaces. Some people need electricity, some people are working as a group and need their tents together, etc. For this reason, it is important that you come to the Spindale Business Community booth when you first arrive to be shown your setup spot. Where is the SBC Tent?The SBC booth is underneath the bit “On Main” sign, at the corner of West Main and Nebraska. White tent with a banner hanging on the table. You’ll find us. When do we set up?We start setting up the downtown area around 8am. The music starts some time around noon, with the pickup band at B-Sharp music playing out front. The food trucks like to show up around noon to catch the lunch crowd. So that means you have all morning to set up, as long as you are done setting up by 2pm. We need you done and set up by 2pm because the classic cars start rolling in by 3pm, and all those parking spaces must be clear. Speaking of which… How does unloading and parking work?Once you have been shown your booth space, you can then bring your vehicle to a parking space right in front of it (or as close as possible) and unload your materials. These parking spaces are all blocked off with traffic cones, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble Once you have unloaded, you can then pull your vehicle around the corner and park in the big public parking lot behind the Spindale Library (just turn up Tanner and keep going until you see it on your left.) When does it end?For some food vendors, the show ends when they run out of food to sell. Officially, it’s over after the classic cars all leave and you can easily get your vehicle into a parking space so you can reload. The important point is that we want everyone who shows up during the event hours (of 2pm-8pm) to have the richest, fullest experience they can so that they come back next month. And we hope you will also come back next month.
See you tomorrow. If you have any questions, feel free to text me at 828-800-8002. I’ll do my best to answer. It might even be the right answer!
