The Riverside Park Amphitheater 2008 Summer Concert Series is gearing up for another great summer but organizers need your help.
If your organization, church group, social group, Relay for Life Team, etc. would like to make extra money this summer the amphitheater committee would like to help you out.
“We are in need of groups to set up at concerts to sell concessions. Items that you could sell would be soft drinks, bottled water, candy bars, bags of chips, popcorn, nachos and cheese, hotdogs, sloppy joes, etc. On cool nights, coffee, hot chocolate and chili go over well,” Carla Sharpe said.
You must go through the Rush County Health Department to get a health permit if food is to be sold.
Rental charges for vendors to rent space during events held at Riverside Park are:
n Not-for-profit: No cost. Spaces size: 10 feet by 10 feet or 10 feet by 15 feet;

n All large rigs (semi) will have a space 10 feet by 60 feet for $100;
n Food vendors (with eating area) will have a space 20 feet by 30 feet for $75.
If electricity is needed an additional charge of $10 will be added per space.
Such rental fees shall be for up to one day for the same day event.
Payment of the rental fee charge shall be made at the time the space is reserved for use at the City of Rushville, City Hall, 133 West First Street, Rushville.
