Enjoy yourself the entire weekend! Divide your time between either exhibiting, watching the live steam trains or the boats in our large indoor boat pond, attending the next educational seminar or on Friday going to The Consignment Auction which starts with box lots being sold at 10:00AM. Doors open @ 8:00AM for Auction Preview and Set Up for Vendors and Exhibitors. Other show highlights are our Consignment Sales Area, as well as, Demonstrations going on throughout the show floor.
Vendors are set up on the inside perimeter of the show and at other key locations throughout the show. They will be selling tools and machinery, both new and used, raw castings to make models and books on all aspects of the mechanical arts, as well as related history. Also you may find metal stock, tool chests and much more.
Due to our continued growth, we moved in 2008 to the larger 150,000 sq. ft. Toyota Arena at the same facility as prior years, the York Fairgrounds & Expo Center in York, PA 17404. The Toyota Arena can accommodate more attendees, exhibitors, as well as vendors, thereby giving everyone more room to view all that the show has to offer.
If you are exhibiting, you have the added benefit of receiving a plaque and the chance to win door prizes so graciously donated by the vendors. The largest of these door prizes will be given away on Sunday afternoon. You must be present to win. Lastly, For Exhibitors Only, in 2008 & 2009, there was a Exhibitor Appreciation Meet & Greet Reception at the Industrial Museum late on Saturday.
To exhibit, all you need to do is go to the admission booth, pay the $10.00 admission fee & let them know that you will be exhibiting so that you get the extras (the plaque, the door prize drawing slip, model description cards & safety sheets). Then find a spot in the center tables set up for exhibitors. Air is available in some areas. Set Up Times are on Friday from 8:00 AM to 7:00PM and at 8:00Am on Saturday & Sunday. Doors are open to the General Public at 9:00AM. And then have fun!
Keep the gears turning...
Hope to see you there!!
