If you've been to Coker Tire's cruise in event in the last couple of years, then you know that it's growing rapidly. In an effort to accommodate more cars, Coker has rented a nearby football stadium property, which includes more than 1,000 parking spaces. Part of the property "rental" includes a massive pavilion, so the crew has decided to include a swap meet as part of the April 1st cruise in. The cruise in itself packs a couple thousand cars and about 10,000 people into a small portion of downtown Chattanooga, and the swap meet will take place during the same time within walking distance of the cruise in. The event will be Saturday, April 1st, from 8am to 4pm. Setup is Friday from 4-8pm and we will have overnight security on hand. No vendor entries will be accepted on the day-of...every vendor has to either be pre-registered, or show up on Friday evening during setup (4-8pm). Pricing is $30 for a 10x20 booth (can also be a "car corral" spot), $40 for a 20x20 booth and $60 for a 20x40 (applies to most trucks and trailers). You can email tommyleeb@coker.com for information on how to set up as a vendor.
Just going to bump this up since we're about a week away from the swap meet. We have some good vendors lined up, and hope to pack the place with buyers and sellers.
