Show Rules:
• Sign up sheets for upcoming shows are available at our monthly meetings. If you cannot
make the meeting, and wish to attend a show, it is up to each individual member to notify
the show organizer.
• Vendor booth spaces are available on a first come, first serve basis. The cut off for sign up to
any show is the meeting before the upcoming show or when ever the available spaces are taken,
which ever comes first. After that, we will accept a waiting list and notify those individuals if a space
become available.
• Vendors must be a member in good standing and have a current Folly Beach Business License.
• If you cannot make the show, you must give at least 24 hours notice or you will forfeit your
booth space for the next show, no exceptions.
• Vendors must stay for the duration of the show. Those who leave early will forfeit their eligibility
to participate in upcoming shows. Special circumstances can be arranged if we are notified well in
advance of the event or in case of emergency.
• Spaces are assigned for each show. We try our best to rotate spaces for each show so that
any one vendor is not in the same location every time. Maps with vendor locations are posted
at the park and emailed to vendors at least 24 hours before the show.
