After a
very successful MangoMania 2011, the Greater Pine Island Chamber of
Commerce will host MangoMania 2012. Saturday hours will be from 10 AM to
7 PM and Sunday 10 AM to 5 PM. This year's event will again be held at
the German American Social Club, 2101 Pine Island Road, Cape Coral,
Florida.
To keep our theme, we are asking all vendors to offer at least one item
for sale which depicts or includes in its ingredients a tropical fruit
or vegetable. Also, we ask that your booth space be eye-catching and fit
the Tropical fruit theme.
Site set up - No earlier than 2 PM Friday and No later than 8 PM,
Saturday set up from 7 AM to 8 AM. LARGE ITEMS LIKE TENTS AND TRAILERS
MUST BE SET UP FRIDAY NIGHT.
No vehicle traffic will be permitted within the main exhibition area
after 8 AM on Saturday.
Golf carts will be available for restocking and transportation during
the festival. There will be onsite security Friday and Saturday nights.
Vendors / exhibitors who are coming from a distance should make
arrangements for overnight accommodations. No vendor will be permitted
to stay overnight on festival grounds. No exceptions.
Please call the MangoMania Hot Line (239) 283-4842 for information on
our member accommodations.
The Park will be locked down after 8 PM on Friday. Vendors are expected
to remain open until the closing of each day. Early tear-downs are
prohibited.
Each vendor will be given a site space and number. Do not set up
elsewhere. Set up in the space layout only.
Because we want to ensure that our vendors achieve maximum sales, we
will be limiting the number of vendors offering the same items to the
consumers. No vendors will be allowed to sell bottled water, as the
Chamber will be handling water and ice sales. When we have decided that
we have sufficient vendors selling a
particular array of items, no other vendor applications will be
accepted. Those vendors not accepted will have their money refunded. The
principle of FIRST COME,
FIRST SERVED will be exercised. No site will be held without all
paperwork and payment. Applications received after July 1 will be
charged a $25.00 late fee.
