For the first time, we’re inviting local crafters to sell their personally crafted handmade items at this annual event! We recognize that supporting local crafters and artisans benefits our community in many ways. By purchasing handmade, locally sourced goods, consumers contribute to a more vibrant and connected community.

In addition to local crafters, we are also showcasing non-profits, such as sports teams, service clubs, charitable organizations, school-related groups, recreational groups, first responders, cheerleaders, school bands, musicians, dancers, and more. Organizations are invited to reserve a space to set up an information booth and/or to demonstrate their talents and perform for the crowd!

We are also seeking food trucks, food vendors and non-profits eager to sell food. There is no cost to participate.

Other highlights include a DJ/emcee playing tunes, a petting zoo, inflatable attractions, FREE sand art, lawn games, and demonstrations by the Raritan Township Fire Company, 49 Rescue Squad and Raritan Township Police Department. Volunteers are also being sought

for the occasion. We especially need assistance at the sand art tent and help with lawn games.
