FF chamber looking for exhibitors at spring home show

With only 82 days until the newly revamped Home & Leisure Show is unveiled, the Fort Frances Chamber of Commerce is urging businesses to book their space now.
“We have a great early bird prize this year,” noted Chamber Co-ordinator Dawn Booth. “Anyone who pays in full before March 1 will have their name go into the draw to receive a refund on their booth price. It’s a great deal. If you know you’re coming anyway, get the cheque out to us, it could pay off.”
Exciting changes have been made to this years show and Booth anticipates they will sell out early. “We’ve received several bookings already this year, different exhibitors, people who haven’t been here before so I think it’s going to be a great show.”
“We are encouraging all exhibitors to offer cash and carry items because we’ve found in the past, people come to the show and want to walk out with something. And with the show falling on Mother’s Day weekend, it’ll be a great time to catch those who may have forgotten to pick something up.”
The committee is continuing to look into adding other great events to be held in conjunction with he show including an antique car show, petting zoo, children’s activities, pony & hay rides, fashion show, entertainment, exhibitor spotlight segment, and much, much more.
Booths are 10 x 10 and include one 8’ backdrop and two 3’ sidewalls. Bulk space, outdoor space, smaller booth sizes, and tables only are also available. Anyone interested in receiving information on becoming an exhibitor in the Show is encouraged to contact Booth at the Chamber office at 274-5773 or 1-800-820-3678 or by e-mail at: thefort@ff.lakeheadu.ca
