Area craft and home business consultants are encouraged to register for the Craft and Home Business Expo to be held at BFR Sports & Fitness on Saturday, Sept. 28.  

The Expo is a new addition to the Bluffton Fall Festival. The Expo will be held indoors at the BFR facility from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Vendors are encouraged to register by July 31 in order to get a space. Cost is $30 for a 10x10 space in the gym. A variety of crafters have shown interest and representatives from  Mary Kay, Pampered Chef, Paparazzi Accessories, Scentsy and Wildtree have already registered. 

In order to limit duplicate items, only one consultant from each national company will be accepted.

Proceeds from the Expo will be used to support operations of the BFR facility. BFR (Bluffton Family Recreation) is a private, non-profit organization which has been providing sports and recreation programming since 1978. 

In addition to the vendors, the  BFR fitness facilities will be showcased.

The Bluffton Fall festival will feature activities at the Mennonite Memorial Home, Maple Crest Senior Living Facility, Main Street businesses, and the Swiss Historical Society.
