. Table fees are now $120.00/table August 1st 2012 table fees will increase to $140.00 if there is any remaining.Just an additional note. The list you see now is the order these vendors will be placed aside from sponsors who get first pick. As this list grows the vendors are being filled from front to back of the venue. The sooner you book, the closer to the front your spot will be. Book fast, it is already filling up quickly and we are already past half with sponsors getting first choice of their spots.. Do not wait till the last minute to book a table, as we will sell out.
