Some questions and looking for thoughts/opinions

A friend of mine who helped start a Maryland HOW chapter also organizes a fishing gear flea market every year to raise money for the local HOW chapter.

Curious to know if this is something members/businesses here would be interested in or is already being done?

Thinking Shasta Ca and NorCal HOW could work together pick a central location - Sacramento Area?

1. $2 or $3 entry fee
2. $10-20 table/space rental
3. Table(s) with fishing gear donated by NCKA members to sell with all monies going to HOW
4. Maybe a Firehouse or some other facility that would let us use space for free
5. Volunteers needed to help, organize, set up, work the HOW tables, sell sodas, water, snacks, clean up
6. Help with getting word out, selling tables etc. 

Please let me know what you think and would you attend something like this and/or rent a table.   

2nd question, are there any businesses here who wouldn't mind if Shasta CA HOW takes part in something they already sponsor similar to this? Would still ask NCKA members for donations of equipment to sell. I know there have been efforts at some of the outdoor shows in past but not sure if that is flea market type stuff?

Thanks,
