Overview
 The
20th Annual Central Dauphin Band
Boosters Spring Craft Show will be held on Saturday,
April 10, 2010, from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.
The show is held indoors at our
state-of-the-art high school located at 437
Piketown Road in Harrisburg, PA (at the
intersection with Route 39 (Linglestown
Road)) with easy access from Interstates
I-81 and I-83. Admission and parking are
free.
Our show features handcrafted
merchandise from nearly 200 crafters, food
concessions, and door prizes held throughout
the day. All proceeds from the craft show
support the Central Dauphin High School RamBand
program.
 Merchandise
The Spring Craft Show traditionally
draws many shoppers looking for
specially-made, unique items. Handcrafted
items are the emphasis of our show. Thus, we
reserve the right to refuse crafter
assignments for anyone offering
commercially-made or franchised items. No
animals or fish, or burning of candles,
incense or potpourri are allowed.
Setup & Breakdown
For past shows, setup has begun at 6:00
a.m. Volunteers will be available to
assist in unloading your vehicle. After
unloading, all vehicles must be moved to the
assigned crafter parking area. Do not mount,
tape, or nail anything on walls. Show is
from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Break down time
begins at 3:00 p.m. No exceptions to this
rule. Anyone who disregards this time and
begins breaking down early will not be
considered for future shows.
Concessions
We serve
delicious food and refreshing drinks all day from amazing Central Dauphin High
School cafeteria.
Frequently Asked Questions
 Q. What type of merchandise is sold?
A. The emphasis of the show is
handcrafted items. In past years, everything
from wood crafts, candy, jewelry, handmade
clothing items, silk floral arrangements and
other imaginative items have been offered by
our crafters. We reserve the right to refuse
crafter
assignments for anyone offering commercially
made or franchised items. This is not a
juried show.
Q. How many crafters attend?
A. Nearly 200 crafters participate
(we're full to capacity and have a waiting
list each year): Many
crafters reserve more than one space to
display their wares.
Q. Are there other activities going on
during the craft show?
A. Yes. The majority of our crafters
donate a craft item for our door prize
promotion. Customers may purchase chances to
win these craft items. We hold frequent drawings throughout the day. You
need not be present to win.
Q. Is there convenient parking available?
A. Yes. The parking lots closest to the
school entrances are made available for
shoppers. Crafters are assigned a separate
parking area after their displays have been
unloaded (we offer lots of volunteer help
for unloading your crafts).
Q. How are crafters selected?
A. Naturally, our Craft Show Committee
gives returning crafters from last year's
show priority when assigning crafter spaces. After
we process returning crafter assignments,
the committee carefully reviews other
applications and makes assignments based on
electrical needs, type of merchandise and
number of spaces requested. Don't
dilly dally with your application:
There has been a waiting list for crafters
wishing to participate in our show!
Q. Why do I need a Pennsylvania Sales Tax
License to participate?
A. All businesses selling products
subject to Sales Tax are required to obtain
a Pennsylvania Sales, Use and Hotel
Occupancy Tax License. Hey, don't
blame us, we're just a bunch of band
parents!!
