In its 40th annual year, the DECA craft fair hosted by Oxford Hills DECA has grown from just 7 spaces for vendors to approximately 170 spaces with 142 vendors this year.
The Chairpeople of this event are Brennan Gillespie, Whitney Morse, and Cameron Letourneau.
The DECA Craft Fair will be taking place on November 22nd, 2014 from 9:30am to 3:00 pm. During this event, there will be over 142 vendors selling their original crafts. There will also be a 50/50 raffle. To make this event more cheerful and less chaotic, the Chamber Choir will be traveling around the event singing Christmas carols.
The application process to be a vendor at the craft fair is pretty simple. Wendy Robichaud, teacher of Oxford Hills DECA says, “When we send out the applications, the first round of applications go to the returning vendors. They then have 2 weeks to get the application back to us, and after that we send applications to our waiting list.”
A waiting list of around 200 vendors. In order to get on the waiting list, people can call or email, and they will be added.
The DECA craft fair has been held at Oxford Hills Comprehensive High school (OHCHS) for 39 of its 40 years, with around 2,700 people in attendance this year.
Admission for the DECA craft fair is $1 dollar, with people 65+ and under 12 getting in for no cost. The money raised at this event will go towards Oxford Hills DECA’s conferences and activities.
