2008 Vendor Application

My name is Kelly Brooks and I would like to introduce myself as the Chair of the Concessions & Vendors for the 2008 Madison Regatta.

Enclosed you will find your 2008 contract that must be filled out completely including items or food sold, electrical needs, if water is needed and size of space needed. Keep in mind we don’t know what you need or what you sell. We are requiring all vendors to send a photo of your trailer or set-up and a list of items you plan to sell for prior approval. In addition all vendors MUST include valid proof of liability insurance in the amount of $1,000,000.

We will have a three day race event schedule, July 4th – 6th, in addition to other events beginning on Tuesday evening and continuing thru the weekend. The Regatta parade will be on Friday and fireworks on Saturday night sponsored by American Legion Post #9.

Fees will be $50.00 per linear foot (10 ft. minimum). Due to the increase cost of our utilities, we will be charging additional fees for electrical hook-ups & water hook-ups.

With your contract you will receive 2 general admission wristbands, and you can purchase additional general admission wristbands for all your workers at a reduced price of $15.00 in advance of the event. You may request these additional wristbands on your contract.

Due to changes, you as the vendor must contact The Jefferson County Health Department at (812) – 273-1942 to obtain your Health Department permits PRIOR to setting up your space.

Down payment of 50% of total fees will be required to reserve your space with copy of your completed contract. Checks must be made payable to Madison Regatta, Inc. We cannot guarantee you the same place you have had in previous years, but we will try to be accommodating. Balance due for spaces, and pictures of your set-up and your proof of your insurance need to be received on or before May 30, 2008, unless prior arrangements are made. Please mail down payment to Madison Regatta, Inc. P.O. Box 341, Madison, IN 47250, C/O Kelly Brooks. If you have any questions you may e-mail me at brooks1425@roadrunner.com. Or, you may leave a message at the Regatta office (812)265-5000. I will try to be as prompt as possible in getting you a reply.

We look forward to seeing you at the 2008 Madison Regatta!
