VOLUNTEERS NEEDED:


Four Small Walkway Signs.  Easy construction and painting job.  We need these to direct visitors to the inner campus, food, restrooms and raffle table.

Friday evening, October 3th.  It takes about 25 volunteers to help prepare the campus on the night before the fair from 3 - 6pm.  We need leaf blowers and scoopers, cafeteria table distributors, and booth markers.  We have to work early because it gets dark quickly and there may be an evening football game to work around.  Please sign up by the week before - Thank you!

EVENT DAY!!! - October 4th
We start setting up at 4:30am to receive vendors at 5:30am.  The fair starts at 8:30am and goes until 4pm.  Everyone is typically gone no later than 6pm.  It takes a lot of people working in shifts to make it all come together.  Please review the list below to see where you may be able to help, but don't forget to also make time to enjoy the fair and support our wonderful vendors and students!

4:30 - 6:30am - Parking lot set-up; distribute rented tables to booth spaces
5:30 - 8:30am - Vendor check-in; traffic direction; assist vendors with unloading; poster/sign distribution.
7:30 - 8:00am - Clear the parking lot of vendor vehicles to prepare for public entrance

VOLUNTEERS KNOW THIS: Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.
Thank you for all you do!!!

2014 Craft Fair ~ Welcome to the new year!


Hello Everyone! 
My name is Lisa Miller.  I am the new BV Craft Fair Committee Chair.  My son is currently a junior at Bella Vista and my daughter is an incoming freshman.  I have been involved with my kid’s schools PTA’s and have been on school Boards and soccer Boards for several years.  I have been going to the BV Craft Fair for years as well as other craft fairs in Northern California.  I look forward to working with you, the vendors, and the BV parent volunteers at our 2014 Craft Fair. 

Important note:
After careful consideration, BVCF has decided to discontinue the electronic application and payments this year until we are able to improve and streamline the process.  2014 Vendors will need to download the application and U.S. mail completed application with payment.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.
