Spring 2009

LEANDER HIGH CRAFT MARKET

SATURDAY -- MARCH 28, 2009 9AM-4PM

Greetings from Leander High School in Leander, Texas! We would like to invite you to our 2009 Spring Leander High Craft Market on Saturday, March 28th, 2009. Our team is hard at work planning another terrific show, continuing this great tradition! Our Fall 2008 show showcased over 150 vendors from all over Texas! Come be a part of the fun!

With our seasoned craft show event planners, this show promises to be the best ever! We do what other craft shows do not -- we go the extra mile for our vendors AND your customers. For example, we help you carry items into your booth space, and help you carry out when the show is over. We take your food and beverage orders and deliver to your booth so that you can stay busy selling. We heavily advertise our event. Our show is THE craft show destination of the year!
