MKF Swap Meet March 3, 2012

That is cool of the Fire Dept letting you use tha hall for free and cutting the cost of the tables. 14 tables out of 30 for such a late start is not bad. Hopefully, you will get more as the time approaches.....

[Memory Maker]

would it be possible to post the flyer so people can print it and distribute it or post it on other websites ........ just a suggestion

[medicyaker]

Yes I can post the flyer. It is being reworked as to make it correct as to who will benifit from the flea market. I suspect it will be ready to send out by the end of the week. I'm sure that Wounded Warriors wont be the one since I can't put out $90 to register. I'm waiting to hear from Heros on the Water. If anyone has a contact for them, can you pass along their contact info. I also plan on being at EACH AND EVERY fishing flea market in the area. I'm refering to all of the ones that were mentioned in a previous members posting. I will be handing out flyers and renting tables at a few of them with the purpose of handing out our flyers. Capt. Chuck from BFG Tackle will have them at his table as well when he is at area events. I"m trying to get him to put them on his web site as well. I understand that Spankin Stripers will have it on his site also. Thanks goes to Nay_Sayer for getting us this guy. Spankin Stripers has rented 4 tables as I said in a previous post. I hope to fill up within the next 3 weeks or so. I'm not only passing out flyers to get people to come and shop but I'm also looking to get other venders at these other events to rent a table at our event. We have the CHEAPEST table fee at $10. Most others charge about $40 and up. I'm trying to get other tackle shops to come as well.
So far I have:
MedicYaker
Redfish 12
Grilled Sardine
Nay_Sayer
BackYard Boats (2 Tables)
Grady Black
Rock Chaser
CB Kayak
JA Veil (Selling Cookies and gear)
Spanking Stripers (4 Tables)
Capt Chuck BFG Tackle

Rick might have an idea. Can you add in your flyer some examples of a gotta buy items that might bring in more clients? Such as 3 year old Hobie Outback on Sale! Locally made Custom rods along with Backboats of Annapolis and etc, etc. Now I just made this up, so insert real items and vendors if it is ok by the vendors to list their names. Then, make the document into a PDF and post it as an attachment or link on other boards like Memory Maker suggested? Just a thought.

I will have the flyers ready to pass out by weeks end. I think the last post I made covered that. I have asked several times for other people to post on other sites since I haven't been a member on any of them long enough to post our event. SOL is one of the sites I'm refering too. Can some of the people wanting tables send me some idea of what they are selling so I can put them on the flyer as MOC has suggested. Do we have someone selling a 3yr old Hobie? I would like this within the next day or two.
Thanks
Tom

I have a final as to who is going to benefit from our little fund raiser. The Fire Dept. is getting the table fees. As previously mentioned and agreed to by most people, Half of the door fee goes to MKF for the Web maintenance and the other half will go to Heros on the water. This is a group that just takes wounded vets out on the water for a day kayak fishing. They don't want a $90 fee just to use their name like Wounded Warriors did. I think thats rediculous to ask that of a group willing to give your group money. SO, now Heros on the water is getting our money. They are sending me a packet with some info and will help us advertise our event. The Flyer will be done by friday evening, I will then post it by the end of the weekend.
Thanks,
Tom

I posted it above. I just realized though, that my good software is at work. So I will be able to make it bigger on Monday.

[medicyaker]

Thank You and I hope everyone is ok with it. Can eveyone still print it off and distribute?

[MetroMan]

For printing, it would be best to have the original PDF hosted online, available for download.

[MetroMan]

It should be downloadable via this link...

I'm wondering if anyone else is able to download and print off these flyers or is it just me having a hard time. I'm not able to make it past the download here button. Its not taking me to the flyer for some reason. Its most likely me and my poor computer skills!!!
