Comments: This was a church festival. The crafters were told that 5,000 attended in '03. I suspect many of us believed that 5,000 people would attend the CRAFT SHOW -- THAT WAS DEFINITELY NOT THE CASE! Only a small percentage of people attended the craft show -- most of the people attending were there for the carnival only. Many of the crafters packed up early and didn't return on Sunday. This was a HUGE disappointment. The only bright side of the day ... I'm catholic and my $40 benefitted the church. Small consolation, though, for a day where most of the vendors (I, included) didn't even make back my booth fee!
