The Chicago Outfit Roller Derby League has a call for all you crafters to sell your goods at their upcoming matches.  Yes, that’s right sell your craft, watch a match and raise funds for the Howard Brown Health Center.   How cool is that!

Here are the details:

The Chicago Outfit is hoping to showcase some of the wonderful people and talents of Chicago on Saturday 07/09 (and also our other home bouts throughout the season: 08/13, 09/10, and 10/01).

We have two options:

1) $50: 6×4′ space with a table and two chairs (you + 1 helper); space+table+2chairs deadline: 06/26.**

2) $40: 6×4′ space without a table (you bring your own setup) includes two chairs (you + 1 helper); space+2chairs deadline: 07/04. **

Your space will have two chairs; you are responsible for supplying and setting up your own table and displays and are only permitted to sell the items that we have discussed.  Booth sharing is currently not permitted.  Food (with the exception of hot dogs and nachos) can be sold with the proper license.

If you cannot attend, let us know as soon as possible. Please note that no refunds for cancellations will be given after Wednesday 06/29. It is the vendor’s responsibility to have a valid IBT#, collect and pay their own sales tax and have their own cash-change.  Electricity is not included in space.

Partial proceeds from all 2011 home bouts will benefit the Howard Brown Health Center, one of the largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender organizations in the nation. Howard Brown focuses on eliminating the disparities in healthcare that exist in the LGBT community, by providing primary medical care and HIV/STD prevention, among other services.

Following the bout, The Chicago Outfit will host an afterparty at Cobra Lounge, with free bus transportation from Windy City Fieldhouse and drink specials.  Cobra Lounge is located at 235 North Ashland Avenue.
