Set-Up Instructions: New Guidelines
1. To help with your set-up time, we are opening the area on Friday for early tent set-up. This will be for vendors that are not in the direct parking lots of Driver Businesses. Remember, we do not have security in the evening, but Police do patrol the area. We suggest that you do not bring merchandise to display, but placing your tent and setting up display area will help with time.
2. Please plan your setup with care. If you have a space near the road, we have been told that the Police WILL NOT let you park half on the road and half on the side, while you set up. Please remove your merchandise, move your vehicle, and then return to work your display. We all must be courteous and remember that Driver properties are under duress since the tornado and we all have to work around changes. Your cooperation will be appreciated.
3. Vendors within business parking lots will setup on Friday, Oct. 20th, 5:00pm-8:00pm.
4. Vendors setting up on Saturday, October 21st will be between 6:00am and 8:00 am sharp!
All roads close to vehicles at 8:00am. After that time, you will need a wagon to bring your merchandise to your vendor tent from the parking area. PLAN AHEAD TO KEEP YOUR STRESS LEVEL TO A MINIMUM! Suffolk Police will enforce this as this is THEIR policy….NOT OURS!
5. Place Vendor Parking Pass on the dashboard of your vehicle throughout the event to prevent being towed away. Once parked, LOT IS CLOSED AND THERE WILL BE NO ONE IN OR OUT! Attendants are volunteers following festival guidelines and do not have the authority to make exceptions so please do not ask!
6. All vendors are to be ready to sell at the start of the festival each day
(Sat 9:00am & Sun 11:00am).
7. WEATHER GUIDELINES: If it begins to rain, you have the option of closing down your tent..But YOU DO NOT HAVE THE OPTION TO TAKE DOWN YOUR TENT OR REMOVE YOUR VEHICLE FROM THE VENDOR PARKING LOT. Have a plan in place for inclement weather and have a tarp to cover your merchandise or put down your side flaps of the tent. You can take your merchandise to your vehicle, but if you attempt to move your vehicle, Suffolk Police have promised and they will ticket you for not complying with this rule!
8. FINAL TRASH PICKUP: 6:00PM evening…after that time you are responsible for all trash to be placed on side of road and it must be in secured trash bags!
9. Medical personnel will be on site during festival hours.
