A Family, A Fair: A Parenting Festival at the Lake — Seeking Vendors! June 3, 2009
To celebrate World Breastfeeding Week, we are again hosting A Family, A Fair: A Parenting Festival at the Lake (formerly called the Lake Norman Baby Fair). This year’s event will take place on Saturday, Sept. 12 from 10am to 2pm on the Town Green in Davidson, North Carolina. The festival is sponsored by the Town of Davidson and will feature up to forty exhibitors, including well-known businesses and local crafters. There will be door prizes, a silent auction, and children’s activities. New and expectant mothers and their families will attend to participate in the activities and visit the exhibits; we expect 400-500 festival-goers.
At this time, we are inviting exhibitors, advertisers, sponsors, and donors to support this important outreach and fund raising event! This is a great opportunity to show your support for breastfeeding and to reach local families with information about your own products or services.
Please contact Tracy (tracyb928@hotmail.com / 828-777-2969) if you have any questions about becoming a vendor.
