Thread: KY swap Meet

I have no dog in this hunt, but we did something similar in Louisiana at a couple of our crappie.com gatherings. It went well . We raffled off anything anyone contributed and gave the proceeds to a charity. Not suggesting you do that, just suggesting your swap could be done in conjunction with a fishing gathering.

I would be interested in a swap meet. Nothing to sell but as another poster said, I can buy. Reasonable drive from central KY would suit me the best.

I’m coming from far eastern ky, so central will work for me, if it’s west of say Louisville I’m probably out.

I volunteer to help any way I can with the event, just let me know what you need. I can provide my number if you like.
My only reccomendation as stated above would be a state park lodge in The central part of the state would likely be a prime location as it would provide a space, likely already have table, chairs, PA system and accommodations for those who are traveling.

What about what "D" suggested? Could have something at the spring fling (after it wraps up) as a feeler and see how it goes and go from there, since a lot from here will be there. Just a thought

I thought about that, but it might not be permitted under the rules I signed on for. I had to tell them it's NOT a tournament venue, as there are extra permits/fees needed for "certain special events".

Now that's not to say it couldn't be held the day after, so long as it's permitted to hold something like that, since the picnic shelter is free & open to the public on a first come, first served basis ... but, I'd still check with the COE (270-465-4463) to make sure it's allowed. It's an "event" and they might want to charge the $50 rental fee, like they do for me to reserve the shelter.

I’ve reached out to several places and no response just yet.

Yes, we will probably have to have some kind of table fee. I’m hoping small fee. Very small.

Still working on this……
