Hello,
I work for the promoters of the Manchester and Stowe Vermont Craft Fairs, and I am wondering how/if we can get more detailed information about the shows listed here. Most helpful I guess would be the name of the shows, and how to contact us to apply.

Any help with this will be most appreciated!

To whom it concerns,
I am extremely interested in the Memorial Day Weekend festivals of events. The dates are May 24-26 at the Tri-County Fairgrounds. Please could you send me all the information needed to participate in this important upcoming event. I look forward to hearing from you.
Respectfully,
Iba
