April 2004

The Sundog Handcraft Faire celebrates its 30th year! Please consider this your invitation to apply for the Faire to be held at Saskatchewan Place, December 3rd, 4th & 5th, 2004.

The Sundog Handcraft Faire continues to live up to its reputation as Saskatchewan's Premier Festival of Crafts. Our Market Area boasts artists, artisans and specialty food producers from across Canada. The Entertainment Stage and our Children's Area receive rave reviews. Our Food Court feeds the masses deliciously and our Information and Demonstration Areas answer a lot of questions! We are proud to have a Faire that meets the high expectations of our patrons. Sundog 29 will continue to be something for everyone!

The deadline for the applications will once again be May 31, 2004. All forms are catagorized by your area , Regular, Specialty Foods, Food and Information. Please ensure that I have sent you the right one! The competition is fierce, so it is in your best interest that your application slides are up to date and of the finest quality. Specialty foods send both slides and samples, and of course, Food and Information, neither. The response to our hourly door prize draws continues to be very favourable. Once again, each marketer will be required to donate/honour a $25.00 gift certificate (supplied by Sundog) if selected to be in the show. By the first week of July, everyone will be notified of the results of the jurying. We hope that this will allow you to plan your season.

After careful consideration during the budget process, the Board has deemed it necessary to increase the booth fees by $25.00, due to escalating costs. The previous increase occurred approximately 14 years ago and we are sure we have your understanding!

The Sundog Handcraft Faire has a reputation for quality that ensures a faithful public following. We will do our best to provide you with a buying crowd; the rest will be up to you! We look forward to the best Sundog ever! Our success is your success!
