The 2008 swap meet is history, and what a swap meet it was. The weather leading up to the swap meet was nice, but then it changed for the worse. Snow, rain, cold, wind was all thrown at southern Minnesota from Thursday to Saturday. This was the worst swap meet in our history as far as weather goes. Many pieces of old iron, collectables, tools, etc. still found a new home. The 5 loaders and 3 pull tractors were kept busy all three days, transferring heavy items from one owner to another and pulling out stuck vehichles. Many smaller haulers were also kept busy. The number of vendors was down due to the nasty weather, but we still registered over 600 vendors. Don't forget the nearly 150 inside vendors. For more 2008 swap meet photos, click HERE.

The Board of Directors would like to thank every one for attending!

Vendor admittance times: Gates open at 5:15 PM on Thursday afternoon to leave as many vendors into the grounds as possible. We will leave vendors in until it gets dark and then shut the gates, and then open again at 6:00 AM Friday morning. Still no selling until Friday morning and spectators are asked to stay away until 10:00 AM on Friday morning, that way the congestion in the parking lot will be down to a minimum.

Vendor prices are as follows:
$40 Charge for outside space, if you need an oversize space, please consider paying double.

$45 For inside space, paid in advance with registration, check with Nancy if any are available.

Registration Building: As soon as you arrive please come to the building and get registered. Register your golf cart, lawn mower or handicap vehicle at the counter just inside the front door. Vendor registration is against the back wall. Be sure to grab a cup of coffee and cookie.
