Member News: Vigo County Fair Exhibit Information

The Vigo County Fair staff is identifying organizations that would like to have a presence at the Fair but have been unable to in the past due to cost and/or staffing.  This year we are trying something new that we hope will be of interest to you.
We are offering a reduced fee to participate at 25% of the cost of a full booth, your cost would be $50.  Also we are only asking your organization to staff the booth one night of the Fair, July 7-14, 2018. This alternative will be set up as a bank of organizations whose  information will be available alongside other organizations on a row of tables.  This will allow the reduced staffing as one or two persons can be present to refill flyers and interact with Fair goers.  (As this is the first year to try this, please be understanding if some modifications have to be made as we see how this develops.)
Below  you will find the original cover letter that provides basic information that will be, in part, applicable to all exhibitors. Also, is the form which exhibitors will return to the Fairgrounds to register for a space.  Please note that the modified cost noted in this email will be honored in spite of it not being on the form.

The Vigo County Fair starts Saturday, July 7 and ends Saturday July 14. Exhibits must be set up and in place by Friday, July 6, at noon. If the booth has not been set up or other arrangements made by noon on Friday, July 6, we will resell your booth space and all paid money will be forfeited.

A $50 deposit is required with a completed and signed application, Certificate of Liability Insurance and Retail License (if applicable) to hold your exhibit space by Monday, June 18. All balances
are due by Friday, June 30, or the booth may be forfeited.

Each exhibitor is required to furnish a Certificate of Insurance showing at least $1,000,000 coverage for liability and property damage. The Wabash Valley Fair Association must be listed as an
additional insured party. If exhibitor does not have this, the WVFA can be contacted for acquisition of a policy. The exhibitor will be exhibiting at their own risk.
Each exhibitor will be provided with 1 parking pass for the week. Additional weekly parking passes are available to purchase for $10 per pass at the WVFA Office. Parking is free until 4pm, after
4pm the gate fee is $5 per vehicle.

Each indoor exhibit booth will be provided a curtain backdrop (with the exception of the center aisle booths) and drape partitions. Access to electrical outlets is limited and is unavailable for indoor center aisle booths. The exhibitor is responsible for providing their own tables, chairs, and electrical cords, that are needed for the display.

Each exhibitor will receive a confirmation and additional exhibitor information by email after the enclosed exhibitor’s application with deposit has been received by the Fairgrounds. If this
confirmation is not received in timely manner, it is the exhibitor’s responsibility to follow-up with Fairgrounds staff to determine if the application has been received.

A packet containing any additional information and parking pass(es) will be given to exhibitors as they arrive and check-in to set up. Exhibitor booth space will be assigned at the sole discretion of
the Wabash Valley Fair Association based on the information provided by the exhibitor on the attached form.

The Indoor Exhibition Building will be open at 9am during the Fair for restocking or delivery if needed. Vehicles will be allowed next to the building for unloading until 10am.
At no time, will vehicles be allowed inside the building. At 10am the front and back access gates will be locked and no vehicles will be permitted enter or exit. There is security on the grounds at all time and the indoor Exposition Building will be locked every evening after closing.
