35th Anniversary
Courthouse Show
HOSTED BY THE MASON AREA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Mason, Michigan
– Hometown U.S.A
 Our 35th anniversary “Down Home Days” show on September 20,
2008 is an outdoor show held around the Ingham County Courthouse
in downtown Mason and is held rain or shine. Show hours are 9 AM to
4:30 PM. The 131 lawn and 18 street spaces are 10' x 10' and the fee
is $60.00 per space. Exhibitors may set up any time after 6 AM on the
day of the show. This show is non-juried and applications are
accepted on a first come, first served basis until all booth spaces
are reserved. Electricity is not available. No carpeting or flooring
of any kind on the lawn spaces is allowed. Whenever possible, we ask
that you set up 18 inches in from the sidewalk to avoid sprinkler
lines.
You will receive a postcard
confirming your booth space after July 15th for Down Home Days. Local and state governments have
requested that we furnish them with the sales tax license numbers of
our exhibitors.
 There
is a space on the application form for you to provide that number. If
you need to get a sales tax number, you may contact the Michigan
Department of Treasury at 517-636-4660 or apply online through the www.michigan.gov website. There are separate availability, fees,
applications and procedures for a small and limited number of food
vendors. Please contact the Chamber for information and food vendor
applications.
If you were an exhibitor at
Down Home Days in 2007, you may have your same booth space in 2008 if
we receive your application and payment by July 15, 2008. This
year, we will again be establishing three sections in each show:
“Artisan’s Row” for arts & crafts, “Community Corner” for local
groups, and “East Market” for flea market and manufactured items.
Only one vendor for certain manufactured items is allowed (i.e.
Tupperware, Mary Kay, etc.) in “East Market.” Requests for
Down Home Days show refunds will be honored, less a $10 handling fee
until August 12, 2008. To participate, complete the form (click
on the link above), make your check payable to MACC and mail it to us
right away!
