Description
| NEW LOCATION! Indoor craft fair and bake sale Saturday in Branchburg's Central Middle School (Somerset County, NJ). Fund-raiser benefits the BWC’s philanthropic fund for charitable donations and student awards. The BWC Craft Fair will be open to the public from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Refreshments and lunch will be available for sale by the Branchburg Woman’s Club. NO product vendors. Crafter table rental is $35; you MUST call Joan first before applying as a crafter. The club reserves the right to choose participating crafters and to limit the number of participating crafters making similar types of crafts. Crafters must be present to set up their own displays, sell their own crafts, and take down/remove their displays and merchandise. No take-downs before 4 p.m. After the Craft Fair, crafters must vacate the premises by 5 PM. No product vendors or manufactured retail items or commercially-made food vendors. Event customers will not be charged an admission fee, but they may make a donation. The Central Middle School was chosen because it has a lot of free convenient parking and is across from popular White Oak Park. School is conveniently located only a few minutes from the intersection of US Hwy 202 North and Old York Road. The BWC is a nonprofit women’s group with over 22 years experience of running a craft event. Local Directions: From the Somerville Traffic Circle (intersection of 202, 206, and 28) follow US Highway 202 south to the 6th traffic light (Old York Rd.) turn right onto Old York Rd. (County Route 637 West). There is a Bank of America on that corner. Take the third right onto Stony Brook Rd. Turn left onto Baird Rd. Go past Cranberry Rd. Central Middle School will be on your right. |
