Opportunity

 

 

Throughout 2016 the North Carolina State Park system will be celebrating its centennial.

Each park is planning its own special events to commemorate the event.

 

Lake Waccamaw will be having their big celebration on May 14. 

They are planning for music, games and food and would like to have some artists and craftspeople to set up booths with items to sell.

 

There is no charge at all to the artists.There is no entry fee or percentage of sales taken.

 

The artists would need to provide their own booths and/or tents for this one day event.

There is no actual deadline, but the planners would like to know by May 12 if you are coming so they can arrange a place for your booth.
