2010 Manitowish Waters Lions Club Flea Market Guidelines

Lions Club representatives will be on site every Thursday morning, June through August (and September weather permitting) at 6 AM to facilitate early setup.  Upon a vendor’s arrival, the Grounds Supervisor will identify the site layout, answer questions and guide the vendor to the sites.  Vendors will be given an envelope and then will go and select their choice of sites.  After a site is selected, the vendor will fill out the information requested on the envelope and insert the required fee amount into the envelope.  Payment should be by check or cash only.  Late morning, a Lions Club representative will collect the envelopes, review the information and provide a receipt to the vendor.               

All sites are marked with a numbered sign and are available on a first-come, first-serve basis (except reserved sites).   All sites are 14-foot wide and vendors should honor the site alignments.  Sites may be reserved on a monthly or seasonal basis by paying the appropriate fee to the Grounds Supervisor.  In September, vendors will be polled for their choice of site(s) for the next year; first seasonal vendors, then monthly vendors and then other vendors.  Site fees are $8 daily, $30 monthly and $75 for the entire season.     

The use of a reserved site is not transferable to another vendor.  If a reserved site is not occupied by 8:00 AM on a given Thursday, or the Lions Club is not notified the vendor may arrive late, the site may be offered for use to other vendors at the discretion of the Lions Club Grounds Supervisor.  At the end of the day, vendors are asked to leave a clean site.  Because the Market is located adjacent to Highway 51, a fair amount of drive-by traffic during the day will occur.  Vendors are expected to remain setup from early/mid-morning to mid-afternoon each Thursday.    

Vendor’s suggestions, questions and comments to the Grounds Supervisor are welcome in making this the best area Flea Market event.  Additional information is available at mwlionsclub.com or Manitowish Waters Lions Club, P.O. Box 301, Manitowish Waters, Wis., 54545 or by calling Mark Suckow (543-8748) or Dave Wickeham (543-2867).
