  • Your table, rack, items, etc. MUST stay within your space to allow adequate aisle space.

  • Please, NO VENDORS. You may not sell any home-based business items at your table (i.e. day care or direct sales such as Mary Kay, Discovery Toys, etc.). Business cards/catalogs to promote your business are acceptable, but no products for sale or display please.
