Due to overwhelming interest, and the fact I am getting emails daily to pre-book I am going to start to take bookings as of TODAY.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greetings !
Following the tremendous success of our ERAS Spring Show & Sale last month, I have decided to take bookings earlier than anticipated due to an overwhelming demand to get started.
THE FALL SHOW WILL BE HELD AT THE SANDS HOTEL (12340 Fort Road, Edmonton) on Saturday OCTOBER 1rst & Sunday the 2nd.
This past spring show we were able to put together the LARGEST reptile show and sale in Edmonton's history with close to 50 groups/vendors in attendance. With that, we do have the ability to be even larger if the demand is present and I fully expect to be at capacity.
Bookings for the spring show filled up within a (unprecedented) week. Based on the interest thus far, I fully expect this to happen again, if not sooner. If you plan on attending our show as a vendor IT IS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED that you book early to guarantee your spot. Please see this link to download the 2 forms www.edmontonreptiles.com/foru...ad.php?t=20418 - vendor form, and vendor rules and etiquette. If you require and ERAS membership form, please let me know and I will direct you to the appropriate person to address this. Please review, fill out, and get these back to me. I will reply with a confirmation, and a total amount required for your spot. Tables booked cannot be guaranteed until payment has been made.
Bookings will be placed in order for the first room, and then the second room. I will advise your room placement as the bookings are received for your information. If you have any special requests on placement, please let me know ASAP, and I will do my level best to accommodate. I cannot guarantee that your request can be filled, however will try.
We are looking into the EMT again, however this process has been daunting thus far with our not for profit status bank account, and the associated issues surrounding that. To that end, payments can be made in cash or cheque at any ERAS meeting, or can be mailed to -
Edmonton Reptile & Amphibian Society
PO Box 52128
10907-82Ave
Edm.AB T6G 1C0
Attn : Kelley Jensen
I will advise to all if we are able to make the EMT issue work out in the near future.
Table Fees -
ERAS Members 1rst table - $20
ERAS Members 2nd, 3rd, or 4th table - $50.00 each table
Non ERAS members - Tables 1 through 4 - $50.00 each
Please reply with your required # of tables (maximum of 4 per vendor) and please note that any correspondence we may have had up to this point does not constitute as a booking. In an effort to be fair and equitable, I run an unbiased booking process and advised everyone that I was not taking bookings at that time in order to not give any one person an unfair advantage over others. Please feel free to pass this email to other potential vendors if you feel they may have interest.
Promotion/advertising will be at an all time high for this show, and I have many new and creative ideas to help get the word out, including the implementation of an advertising sub committee for this show who will help get the word out thorugh various forms of interactive methods. Our pre-show Londonderry showcase was a huge success and brought many new faces into the Edmonton reptile hobby. We have booked another one for this fall, and will be possibly be looking to sign up at another mall as well for a hands on demonstration & promotion of our show. News, radio, and other forms of social media will be included and we will have our posters, flyers and cards done well in advance to maximize distribution.
We will be dedicating an area on our forum for vendor advertising from now, until show time. If you want to be included in this, please let me know so that I can pass along your information to the webmaster, and updates will occur as time permits within his schedule. Feel free to contact me as well if you are looking for banner advertising on our website - www.edmontonreptiles.com and I can direct you to the proper person.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns, and I will get back to you within a 24 hour period.
Best regards,
Kelley Jensen
