NOTIFICATION & CANCELLATION
Notification or Rejection letters will be mailed out approximately 2 weeks after application deadline, to allow the jury sufficient time to evaluate your materials.

We accept your contract in good faith and expect you to honor your commitment. No refunds will be given to anyone who does not give the required notice.

You may sell up to three major food items per space and must attach your entire menu to the application. All left over foodstuffs, grease and charcoals must be removed from the premises by you. Do not dispose of these items in the local trash cans, sewers or along the curbside. Vendors who violate these rules will be fined by the City and will not be permitted into future festivals.
