Hackett Park Craft Fair Vendor Information – Canada Day 2015
March 30, 2015
Plans for the Sechelt Canada Day Parade and Hackett Park Craft Fair are well underway and we hope you’ll want
to be involved this year. The Canada Day celebrations will take place on Wednesday, July 1, 2015. The theme of
this year’s celebrations is “Sechelt – Many People, One Community”.
New this year: The craft vendors (and the main music stage) are still located on the upper field of Hackett Park,
but the craft booth locations have been moved . Enclosed is a map of Hackett Park field with the craft booth
locations indicated. All craft booths are a minimum of 10 feet by 10 feet, and will have two open sides available.
