Only non-profit organizations as defined by DuBois Community Days guidelines (not just because you have a non-profit status) can have any type of booth that generate income for the group. Food booths or trailers must be maned by the members of the group, not the owners of the trailer (if separate from the group.) Corporate booths must pay a minimum $500 level sponsorship or more to have a booth. See the Sponsorship section on the website for options and to purchase. Corporate booths can not sell anything directly to the customer at the event, but can provide information on your services. All booths (other than food) are encouraged to give away free tokens, or have free drawings for prizes, or provide fun activities for kids and family. Community Days has many booths and activities - you should try to do something interesting to attract more traffic to your booth.
You may want to bring lights for Friday & Saturday evening.

If you are a $500 sponsor or more, there is no charge for electric.
If you are a non-profit organization, and you need electric, the charge will $20 for every 100 sq feet of booth area.
