Here’s your information for the 2022 Pineknotter Days celebration including a copy of the Concession Stand Rules & Regulations. Please make sure ALL who work in your stand know these rules and regulations.
Vendor applications can be found at the following web address: pineknotterdays.com/vendor-application and should be completed NO LATER THAN May 1st 2021. Applications received after the deadline risk forfeiting their approved vendor status.
By completing & returning the application for our Pineknotter Days celebration vendors agree to contribute the following:
- For-profit vendors — twenty percent (20%) of your gross sales to the Pineknotter Days Committee.
- Non-profit vendors agree to contribute 10 percent (10%) of your gross sales to the Pineknotter Days Committee. In exchange for a lower contribution rate, your group agrees to provide at least two (2) representatives to assist with clean up on Saturday, July 10, 2021. NOTE: Failure to have the required representation for the complete cleanup time will result in a higher contribution rate for your group next year, or possible exclusion from future events.
Contributions shall be brought to the Pineknotter Store nightly.
A certificate of insurance in the amount of one million ($1,000,000.00) naming Pineknotters Day as additional insured should be emailed to jeremy@pineknotterdays.com
If not emailed prior to the event, these must be presented before you will be allowed to set up your stand.
Days & hours for 2022 are as follows:
Monday July 4th, 9 AM – 10 PM.
Tuesday July 5th, Wednesday July 6th, Thursday July 7th, Friday July 8th 5 PM – 10 PM
Please note – these are the required hours. All stands are to remain open until 10 PM every night.
If so desired stands may take a midday break (2 PM – 5 PM) on July 4th
It’s important we know the date & time you want to set up so we can arrange to have someone there to get you set up in the proper place & assist with electric hook-up. Please do not assume that you will be located at the same place as in previous years.
Do not plan to set up before 8:00AM on Saturday, July 2nd. Any setting up on Sunday, July 5th must be started after 1:00 PM & cease by 6:00 PM so as not to interfere with Sunday church services or the Pineknotter Days church service.
These rules & regulations are part of the application you or your group’s representative signed & submitted to participate in Pineknotter Days. We expect them to be followed by everyone working in your stand. Please make sure your workers are aware of them!
