2013 3^rd Thursday Events

“Littleton’s 299^th”

Dear Business Owner:

As you may or may not know, the Town of Littleton’s Department of Parks, Recreation and Community Education Department began a new venture last summer called “Third Thursdays on the Common.” During these events, held appropriately on the Third Thursday of June, July and August, vendors from the Community set up in dedicated spaces within Littleton Common (Rt.110/119 Junction) and members of the Community came to shop, browse and meet area small and large business owners. The events were met with great success, and we plan to continue with them for the summer of 2013.

Because of the great response from both vendors and the community, we have changed some of the procedures for the 2013 season, although the premise of the event will remain the same—generate interest in the common area and support area businesses. Changes of note include that all vendors will have a 10x10 booth space, and each event will run from 5PM-8PM.

Because we are looking for as much community involvement as possible, we are taking this opportunity to ask you, as a valued area business owner, to participate in one (or all three!) of these festivals. Participation in these events is a great way to show-off what you do and what you have to offer as a business owner. Bring specialty items, crafts, food and more. What you do with your booth area is up to you—we just want you to be there with us! Last year, we sold out in the months of July and August and we expect all three events to be sell-outs this year as well.

If you plan on participating, please fill out the attached vendor registration form in their entirety (provide as much detail as possible so we may advertise your business accordingly) and return them to Kate Hodges, Parks, Recreation and Community Education Director NO LATER THAN Friday, April 26^th to ensure a spot in the events. Please also make sure to include your vendor fee(s) for the number of events you wish to participate in. Unfortunately, applications received after the above date may not be guaranteed a spot; we expect full vendor participation and spots are limited.

Vendor Applications may be mailed to: (WE GUARENTEE A SPOT IF RECEIVED BY 04/26/13)
