Vendor information about Stampede Days

Jefferson Stampede Days
Saturday June 11th
10am-3pm
Main Street, Rigby ~Parade~ 10 am
Rigby City Park, Rigby ~Fair~ 11am-3pm 

We are excited to invite you to participate in the 2011 Jefferson Stampede Days hosted by the City of Rigby, Rigby Chamber of Commerce, the Jefferson Rodeo Committee and the citizens of Jefferson County.  We would love to see all the vendors that participated last year participate again this year and add many new vendors to the day!

Stampede Days is our traditional celebration of the rodeo that comes to Rigby every year, showcasing our small town charm and the great people we live among.  Our main goal for this year is to have many free and low cost events for families to enjoy during Stampede Days leading up to the rodeo that evening.  We expect to have many families coming with children of all ages and we believe that the activities will draw a large variety of people to our beautiful town.

We start the morning with our annual parade. Come see the horses, the floats and catch some of the candy! The parade starts at 10am sharp and is one of the best small town parades in the state. Well over 1,000 people have attend our parade every year and it is a great time for all.

Right after the parade everyone moseys on over to the Rigby City Park (it is just a block away!) and has a bite to eat from one of our many food booths. Then you can get to look at the great business that have set up shop for the day. Childeren get to participate in activities geared just for them, and everyone will enjoy the contests that will have you thinking you are at a small town fair years ago. The many family friendly events are sure to draw a huge crowd.

We will have entertainment, raffles and prizes all day for people. It is sure to bring in a lot of new people to see your booth.

Booth prices this year will be $25 for vendors. Not-For-Profit vendors are encouraged to contact us regarding fees. We would like vendors to provide a door prize, raffles prizes and contest prizes (optional, but encouraged). We will get you a list of the different contests we plan to host and you can choose one to sponsor if you want!


In order to have a nice variety of booths at the park we will only be allowing 4 vendors of a given genre (ie, if you are a photographer, only 4 will be allowed). However if you are a specific business (ie. Scentsy) we will only allow ONE vendor from a specific business. Variety will help everyone succeed. We will also have incentives for vendors who purchase from you and as we get closer to June we will be sending you all the fun details.
          
We hope to see you at the 2011 Jefferson Stampede Days.  We are very excited and think that this is going to be a great day! If you would like to participate, please contact Misty Erickson at stampededays@gmail.com or call her at 208-313-1548.
