The Details
We do have some restrictions on items that can be sold. Since we are a school, we cannot allow the sale of weapons or alcohol on-site. The booths are 10ft wide and 8ft deep, and the fee for each booth is $50. We do have a number of spaces available for electricity for an additional fee of $10 per registrant, not per booth. The only way this would be different is if you requested your booths not be connected. If you have crafts that could be damaging to the gym floor (in the past we had a crafter who made concrete garden benches) please let us know so we can plan accordingly. Each booth is provided with one chair (and no tables). You are responsible for tables and additional chairs if needed. Crafters can begin setup at 7am on the day of the show. Unfortunately, we can’t allow set up the night before.When you register, you will fill out a Google form (there is a registration page somewhere around here). When you submit the form, it will give you a link to click that will allow you to pay immediately via PayPal, Venmo, or credit card. You will get a confirmation email almost immediately from both our form and PayPal. If there is an issue, we will contact you as soon as we can. One very important thing, please triple-check your email address and phone number. Probably 90 percent of our communication issues come from mistyping one part of a phone number or email address. We try to answer questions and emails throughout the week, but we are a student-managed craft show. Our normal working meeting is on Thursday evening. This is when the bulk of our responses will happen.A few days before the show, you will receive an email with day-of instructions and a load-in/parking map. This will also serve as your final confirmation that everything is green across the board, and we will see you at the show!On the day of the show, come to the check-in table (We have a big sign over our heads and are usually near the north doors) and grab your registration packet. Inside the envelope, you will find a number of things, but most importantly your booth location, and we will get you registered for the free booth raffle.One thing we have been told is unique to our show (at least locally) is we provide people to help with load-in and load-out! We do have a number of team members available in the morning and afternoon to help with unloading and loading. We do ask you to remember one very important thing, though. These are kids. Please remember to have grace and patience. If you have an issue, please come find the adults. We are usually at the check-in table or helping with load in/out. If it is an emergency, call the phone number in your registration packet.

We are the Piper Craft Show run by Piper’s FIRST robotics team, FRC Team Stealth. If you would like to be a part of our show, we would love to have you. If there is something we have missed or if you have any other questions, just ask us via Facebook or email [email protected]!We run 3 shows a year on the first Saturdays in May, October, and December. Each show is housed inside the Piper High School Gym and Commons, with doors open from 9am-3pm. The exception is our December show that runs in conjunction with Piper Optimist's Breakfast with Santa. For that show, the doors open to the public at 8:00am.
Information specifically for retail vendors
Crafters who attend our show get first preference for the next one. For non-retail vendors, this is rarely an issue. The primary concern for a sellers or consultants of retail items is only one booth for each brand is allowed to sell at each show. A retail vendor is described as someone who sells an item or brand that could theoretically purchase from another person (think Scentsy, LuLaRoe, Avon, Colorstreet, etc.).
