Vendor information:

Vendors are a big part of our event.  Not only do they add to the entertainment of our guests, they also provide services that we otherwise could not.  Unfortunately, there are a lot of rules to becoming a vendor at the fly-in.  Below you can download the contract and other necessary documents to get you on your way.  Keep in mind the due date for getting this information back to us.  Because of the sheer volume of paperwork and the requirements put upon us by the county, you must get everything back to us NO LATER than the 17th of May, 2007.

In Memoriam;

 

  Fred Lester Jr. - January 1st, 1947 to April 6th, 2007


 

As a 22 year veteran of the Air Force, including being stationed at Castle A.F.B., Fred and the Mariposa Hot Dog Den were a perfect match for the Merced West Coast Antique Fly-In.  Fred could serve up a great hot dog quick and top it off with even quicker wit.

Even in the weeks leading up to his passing, Fred was still flirting with the girls and giving the guys a hard time.  He could take a stressful and sour situation and make it better for everyone involved without "hurting any feelings", and at the same time, leave us all laughing and with a smile in our hearts.

Fred, your wisdom, wit, generosity and kindness will be missed, and it's only fitting that the tragic disease that you suffered from is the one that we picked to fight with this years fly-in.  We promise to do all that we can to support the American Cancer Society.

Our sympathies go to his loving wife Debbie, his children, extended family and all those he touched that called him "my friend".  And now we pray that he can say "Oh I Have Slipped The Surly Bonds of Earth... Put Out My Hand And Touched the Face of God".
