Saturday, October 23, 2010 10:00am – 2:00pm
Chastain Park
Ahimsa House invites you to participate in our annual Outdoor Festival and Pet Parade, Walk N’ Wag. Every
dollar we raise with your help goes to a great cause!
Ahimsa House is dedicated to helping the human and animal victims of domestic violence reach safety together.
Last year, the Ahimsa House 24-hour crisis line received calls from 31 counties all across Georgia and provided
3,137 nights of safe shelter for animal victims of domestic violence. More than 90% of donations directly
support the people and animals we serve.
Ahimsa House expects this year’s Walk N’ Wag to be a great success, and we have prepared Vendor Booth
assignments and the check-in process based on last year’s feedback. Below you will find rules and guidelines to
help make this event as seamless as possible for our Vendors. If you have additional questions, please contact
Ana Lenoir at ana@ahimsahouse.org or walknwag@ahimsahouse.org.
1. Reservation of Space and Vendor Space Rental Cost
The total cost for a reserved Vendor space on October 23, 2010 is $50.00 (unless waived for an approved nonprofit organization). By completing a vendor application, you are agreeing to the terms set forth in these Vendor
Guidelines.
2. Fee Schedule and Cancelations
Booth rental fee of $50.00 is non-refundable and non-transferable unless written notice of cancellation is
received thirty (30) days prior to the event date.
3. Acceptance
Upon request to become a vendor, Applicant agrees to abide by all rules set forth by Ahimsa House and to honor
instructions as deemed necessary during the event as issued by either the Event Coordinator and/or Ahimsa
House designee.
Vendors are urged to insure their equipment and products at their own expense. Ahimsa House will not be
responsible for any injury that may occur to any employees, theft, loss of life or damage to any property from
any cause whatsoever, regardless of whether management furnishes guards or night watchmen.
4. Unforeseen Events
Walk N’ Wag is a “rain or shine” event. Ahimsa House cannot guarantee Vendor’s protection from loss or insure
against loss for any reason. Vendor hereby waives any claim for incidental or consequential damages or

Ahimsa House may, in its sole discretion, assign, designate or change Vendor’s booth area location. The festival
will provide designated space for each Vendor to be used for product displays and sales.
Booth location will be determined by Ahimsa House. Booth space shall not be altered by the Vendor.
Vendor shall staff its booth during all hours of the event and booth shall not be left unattended until after the
publicized closing hour.
Vendor Check-In is on Saturday, October 23 from 6:30am – 8:30am. We ask you be set-up and ready by 9:00am.
While the event officially begins at 10:00am, it is our experience that people come early.
The official event site for Walk N’ Wag 2010 is the Blue Lot located on Stella Road in Chastain Park. Prior to
9:00am, Vendors will have the ability to drive very close to their assigned Vendor Space. Volunteers will help
direct you to your assigned Vendor Space help you unload. After unloading, you will be directed to the parking
area in the Upper Blue Lot adjacent to the event site. After parking, return to your booth area to continue the
set-up process.
