Wildwood School - Julie Case said they couldn't provide a "baby sitting"
situation at the Saturday Market due to liability.
They will work with making things in the Park for 15 minutes to 1/2 hour
with the parents. They will do tie-died T-shirts, jewelry etc. The tent will
be manned by volunteers from the school and all of the materials have been
given to them. They do not have any expenses.
Andrew 'said Wildwood has the spot where Seth was last year. Julie asked if
they could come later in the day to man the tent.
Eric said 8:00 a.m. isn't the peak time but people will be there. Eric said all
non-profits should be ready to be set up by 8:00 and stay till 3:30 in
conjunction with all of the other vendors. Julie agreed.
Marc inquired if the parents pay in advance for the craft. Julie said she
hadn't thought of selling space in advance. Marc said as long as they put
the disclaimer out to make parents aware of the liability that will cover
them.
Julie said they want to commit until Sept. It is difficult to get teachers here
after school starts.
Andrew said they need to be there through Labor Day.
Maggie and Marc said kids were at the market through Sept. and October.
Andrew suggested the teachers keep the money instead of giving it back to
the school. That way the park would be full through October.
Eric asked how many teachers would be there each Saturday. Julie said 2
but they have a back up of two in case someone gets sick.
Bill asked how many children they could hold for one event. Julie said
probably 12 are the max. with a 15 to 20 minute turn around.
