I am a local business owner and would like to know how I would get to be able to set up a table to give away great deals on tanning, classes and gym memberships?

Are children allowed to come with since there is no child care or is it preferred to be a none child event?

Kids would need to be heavily monitored and not allowed to take any of the gifts for themselves. One gift per family.

Hi Ken! I'd be happy to do a glam makeover for the winners! That way they will be really pampered and look great for the photo shoot! Call me!

I take it this is only for the spouses that have someone that is currently deployed?

I am in nursing school and have clinicals that day until 3, so I would be there by 330. Am I going to be missing a lot of the drawings and give-aways? Wish there was a way I could be there all day, but just can't. :(

Lots of prizes throughout the day...come at 3:30 and enjoy.

Ken,

I am a confirmed vendor and we are very exciting about sharing out opportunities and prizes with the soldiers and their families. Both myself, and my boss however are both currently disabled and not physically able to carry in our table, chairs, ect. Do you know who I can get in contact with in order to hopefully make arrangements for assistance?

Krystal said on Jun. 01, 2010 at 7:45pm

Is there any way to sign up for things before the event in case I am not there in time for all of the drawings, or do you have to be present to enter the drawings?

You may come and go. A schedule will be handed out at the entrance, thought the class schedule is available on the sign-up page.

RangerKen said on Jun. 02, 2010 at 6:26am

No sign-up for prizes. We are offering prizes throughout the day at our two Ranger newspaper tables, plus prizes are available at each class.

We will have staff to help vendors set up....no problem.
