Dear Food Vendor:
I would like to invite you to apply to sell food at the 30th annual TPFF,
which will be held on Sunday, September 16, 2007 from 11:00 a.m. to 6:30
p.m., rain or shine. The festival will be at Takoma Park Middle School,
7611 Piney Branch Road (at the intersection of Piney Branch Road and Grant
Avenue, or one block north of MD 410).
I cannot assure you that your application will be accepted. We have a
limited number of spaces and strive to offer a variety of food that will
appeal to the families who attend our festival.
YOU MUST FILE TWO APPLICATIONS
1. Festival Application and Fees. The festival fee for all food
vendors is $300. Complete the enclosed Festival application and return it
to PO BOX 5869. Your application and at least $150 is due by June 1; if you
do not respond by that date, we will assume you do not wish to participate
this year. Please make checks payable to TPFF, Inc. Complete payment
is due no later than August 1.
You will be notified by the end of June as to whether your application has
been accepted. In the event it is not, your deposit will be promptly refunded.
If you cancel by August 15, your entire payment will be refunded. However,
if you cancel after August 15 or fail to appear at the Festival, your fee
is not refundable.
2. Temporary Permit from the Montgomery County Health & Human Services
Department. After we notify you that you are accepted as a vendor, you
must apply to Montgomery County for a temporary food permit. You can call
them at 240-777-3986 or download the application at
http://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/content/hhs/license/tempfdappl.pdf.
Fees payable to Montgomery County are listed on their Web site and
application. There will be food inspectors on-site checking permits.
Please read the
Food Vendor Fact Sheet for more information about our policies and
procedures.
Thanks for considering our Festival.
Sincerely,
Scott Gilkeson
Food Coordinator
