Why be a Vendor?
This unique and family-friendly event is in its 27th year. We are proud to host this festival and we have developed a range of opportunities for organizations that provide products and services to showcase themselves to the upstate community. Bark in the Park is the perfect venue to:

1. Promote your organization or business
2. Raise awareness of your organization with potential customers
3. Congratulate the winners of our contests and celebrate their award-winning achievements
4. Show your support for the work of CCA

Because this event has become a beloved tradition, sponsors also benefit from the opportunity to reach a select group of upstate residents. This unique festival is your chance to interact with a very targeted audience.
