Flagfest at Betsy Ross House
What a wonderful event this one was! One reason I was so happy to have participated in it was that I did very well on the money side. But the event was nice in other ways, too.
First, the event staff was awesome--helpful, generous with their time and making sure the vendors were comfortable, willing to go the extra mile to hlp--in particular, moving vendors around on Sunday to accommodate traffic. Thank you, Chris--and Michelle and Keith and many others.
Second, lot of fun stuff, like Uncle Sam on stilts, guys riding up and down on those wonderful big-wheeled bikes, Punch and Judy shows, John Philip Sousa band music, food of many kinds, and a great variety of vendors.
Finally, a wonderful crowd of potential customers. There were lots of Boston Red Sox fans in town for the series with the Phillies, and they were lovin' it! Also lots of travelers from everywhere in town for a few days--I met a wonderful duo, Barbara and her sister, who not only bought some nice pieces from me on Saturday but came back on Sunday to say good-bye as they were leaving town--how nice was that? Lots of kids and dogs and balloons and ice cream...I hope the Betsy Ross House folks run this again. It's a real winner.
