If you have a placement preference, we will do our very best to accommodate your request. Please note: Vendor location will be determined by the Event Committee.

To make this a successful event for everyone, we may need to limit the number of “similar” vendors so please be specific on your contract as to what you will be selling or the services you will be offering.  If you do not have a permit to sell food and beverages from the District 10 Health Department and/or a Grocer’s License, NO FOOD/BEVERAGES may be sold from your site.  Violators will be asked to leave Marketplace immediately!

Due to space constraints, camping space is limited and is only available on a first-come, first-served basis.  Camping is only allowed on Maple St. between 9th St. and the Rails-for-Trails.  If you intend to camp, you must mark it on your application.  Power will not be available for campers.  You may also check our Facebook page for alternative camping/motel accommodations.

Upon arrival and prior to set-up, all vendors are required to check in at the Lake County Chamber of Commerce office located at 895 Michigan Avenue (M-37), Baldwin, MI  49304.
