FOUNDERS' DAY 2008
FOOD BOOTH INSTRUCTIONS

RULES
All food vendors must adhere to the Temporary Food Service Establishment Permit Requirements of the Waco-McLennan County Public Health District and Compliance Guidelines.

Your organization will NOT be permitted to sell or distribute drinks of any kind. The festival committee reserves the right to sell all beverages during Founders' Day. Any food vendor trying to sell drinks will first be asked to stop, and then asked to leave the festival grounds if you persist. This is non-negotiable.

If you do not have a trailer as part of your set-up, you must bring or sign up for a tent. (Health Department rules, not ours). You are responsible for tables and displays. Please use good taste in your set-up. You are responsible for signs regarding sponsorship, what food items you are selling, and prices.

Vendor is responsible for keeping his/her area neat and clean. All trash and debris is to be cleaned up by the vendor during the day and after breakdown. Trash receptacles will be located throughout the festival grounds.

You must list everything you intend to sell.* This helps with our advertising, as well as keeping us from overbooking a particular item. If you have something unusual, please describe.

The McGregor Volunteer Fire Department sells BBQ sandwiches as a part of their annual fundraising endeavors. We would ask that they are the only BBQ sandwich vendor.

If you require electricity, you must check the appropriate area on your application. You will need to provide your own heavy-duty extension and power cords. They must be taped down with heavy-duty duct tape. All hookups should be GFI compatible. All breakers are 20 amp. Due to festival expansions, electricity will be available on a limited basis- first-come first-served, so mail your application today! We will not have electricity for non-approved vendors on the day of the festival. Please note fees for electricity on the application sheet.
