The dates for our events are as follows: the monthly Open Horse Shows are the 1st Saturday of April, May & October,(10am-7pm). *

Booth Fee: Vendor agrees to pay the Vendor Booth Fee. GFREC does not charge a commission on sales, unless otherwise agreed to for entertainment. The Booth Fee IS REFUNDED to the vendor ONLY in the event that the application is rejected or the GFREC event is cancelled. If the vendor is accepted and cancels for any reason, all fees are non-refundable. *

Notification: This is a non-juried, space available event for vendors (craft, entertainment or food). Vendors will need to include detailed information about the products they will be selling. This list should be detailed. We reserve the right to reject vendors who have unsuitable products for our event. Returning vendors receive priority. Vendors are accepted into GFREC events upon approval and if payment is received by the deadline. Vendors are notified of acceptance via telephone or email. It is imperative that you include your telephone number and email address when submitting the application. Late applicants are accepted only in the event that space is available. *

Booth and Electrical: GFREC events are outdoor events. GFREC provides an assigned space only. Vendors should provide a canopy and tables etc. for their space. Canopies, umbrellas or pop-ups must be safely anchored to the ground. Any vendor failing to sufficiently anchor their canopy to the ground will not be permitted to sell their products until it is either removed or anchored. Power is available in a limited number of booths and can be purchased at a cost of $10.00 per booth (single or double). The power will be grounded (GFIC). This is for 1 (one) 20 amp circuit only - the equivalent of one household plug. NO EXCEPTIONS! Additional power needs must be discussed with GFREC. Vendors who receive approval for electrical usage must supply their own 3 prong heavy duty extension cords in a length of at least 200' - 225'. Inferior cords will not be allowed. Please check all cords prior to arrival to be sure they are operable. No "piggy backing" of other vendor's extension cords is allowed. All power usage will be inspected by staff to see if it conforms to our requirements. Personal generators are acceptable in your booth upon approval. All Food Vendors cooking with electric, charcoal, or gas, MUST HAVE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER on hand. Vendors must provide airtight containers for disposal of cooking oils, grease, and waste materials. Food vendors are responsible for removing this waste from the site. Trash cans will be provided for other trash. Please leave your space as you found it. The vendor agrees to maintain their booth during GFREC event hours. Set up begins at 9:00am for all events. Upon arrival at the GFREC, please report to the registration table for your space assignments. Breakdown no earlier than 4pm or at the close of the GFREC events.  All vendors should pay in advance for their desired space. You may send your payments to Beth Gaston at 2717 Gaston Farm Rd Chester, SC 29706. *
