Is this event right for my organization?
SSKO GO Day partners envision an event where every organization represented will be sharing activities and information to promote an intentional, inclusive, and safe outdoor space to explore adventure activities such as swimming, fishing, hiking, climbing, biking, boating, navigation, nature identification, connection to basic resources, and more.
This is NOT your typical community fair and outside of the food vendors, sales of any type are not permitted. Please consider the following guidelines before registering as an exhibitor
Exhibits should meet the following criteria:
- Incorporates a hands-on component – an activity, a game, props to explore, etc.
- Only hand out information that connects people directly to the outdoors and/or community resources – maps, program brochures and sign ups, schedules, coupons, etc.
- If exhibitor is there to provide food samples – contact us first before registering – there are requirements you must meet to be eligible.
Exhibits that do not meet the above criteria will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The SSKO GO planning team reserves the right to turn away any exhibit that does not fit within the scope and intention of the event.
