No hand-delivered applications will be accepted.

Notification: Vendors will be notified by the Chilmark Flea Committee on or before May 1 whether their application has been accepted. Please note that we typically receive many more applications than the number of spaces on the field and the Chilmark Flea Committee will make vendor selections that are in the best interest of the Flea Market.

Wait List: We will maintain a waitlist for vendors who were unable to secure a space for the season. You will be contacted by the Vendor Manager if a space becomes available.

Food Vendors: A current copy of your Board of Health Certificate(s) is required with your application.

Subletting: We do NOT allow vendors to sublet their space. Do not offer your space to another vendor in your absence.

Vendor Wares and Behavior: Wares and behavior of all vendors and their guests must be deemed suitable and acceptable by the Chilmark Community Church UMC, the Chilmark Flea Market Committee and/or the Vendor Manager.

NO Vendor can claim an EXCLUSIVE on the selling of MANUFACTURED items. Please include ALL wares that you will be selling on this application, including items you may be selling for others. This allows us to place vendors, with similar items, accordingly on the field. Failure to do so will result in ejection from the Flea.

2020 CHILMARK FLEA MARKET

FIELD REGULATIONS

1. Payment: Vendors must have payment of $50 cash or check ready upon arrival at the site for each 12 x 30 foot space. Make checks payable to Chilmark Church. If you don’t have your payment ready, please pull to the side so you don’t hold up other vendors.

2. Absence from a booked Flea Date: If you must be absent, please email the Vendor Manager at least 48 hours in advance. Notifications made less than 48 hours in advance must pay $50 for their vacant space

3. Inclement Weather: We cancel for stormy weather and all-day rain.

WE DO NOT CANCEL FOR FOG, LIGHT MIST, OVERCAST OR CLOUDY SKIES.

Vendor Manager and Flea Committee will decide by 6:15 a.m. and notify vendors by 6:30 a.m. via email if the flea will be canceled for the day. We will email vendors ONLY if we are canceling.

If we are open and you are absent, we will expect payment. If stormy conditions move in before 12 noon NECESSITATING CLOSING, all participating vendors will receive a credit.

4. Arrival and Setup: Vendors may arrive between 7:10 and 8:30 AM to set up. No Early birds, as the field is not managed until 7:10 a.m. Vendors who arrive past 8:45 AM will not be guaranteed a space. Vendors who arrive after 9:00 AM will not be allowed to enter the field. Once the Flea Market has opened, no vehicle may enter or exit field, except in case of emergency.

The Public is invited between 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM. All vendors must remain on the field until 2:00 PM.

You are responsible to bring tables or racks to display your goods. Large furniture, rugs and artifacts may be placed on the ground. No items can be placed outside of the assigned 12 x 30 foot space.

5. Customer Parking: Vendors are allowed one vehicle per space and the vehicle must be in the assigned space. The on-site parking is for customers coming to the Flea, and we ask vendors who invite visitors to limit their stay. By doing so this enables us to offer free parking for our customers. Once the lot is full, we will initiate the Lot Full policy and sign to indicate that NO more cars will be allowed into Flea.

6. Food vendors must supply a trash can accessible to the public. All vendors should pick up litter on or near your space before leaving. DO NOT put your trash, boxes, packaging, etc in the trash can by the bathrooms. This is meant for public use ONLY.

7. Smoking is not allowed on the vendor field. Please ask visitors to put out and carry out smoking materials. Smoking is allowed off the vendor field but should be far enough away from the field so it does not impact vendors or shoppers.

8. Vendors should NOT bring their pets to the Flea.

Payment: ​Payment of $50 per 12’ x 30’ space, is due upon arrival at each flea, cash or check. Vendor vehicle only is parked in this space for the duration of each flea. Due to limited parking and Flea popularity only one car per ​application ​please. ​This will be strictly enforced.

Arrival: ​Vendors may arrive between 7:10 and 8:30 AM to set up. ​No Early birds​, as the field is not managed until 7:10 a.m. Vendors who arrive past 8:45 AM will not be guaranteed a space.
