A NOTE ABOUT VENDORS:
While this is not a commercial event, in keeping with the tradition which began at the first Desert Rendezvous back in 2011, vendors are encouraged to attend and if they happen to sell a few things to friends out of the back of their rig that's their beeswax. Just no tables, Ezy-ups etc. Again, this is not a commercial event this is just for fun.
Vendors in attendance are however expected to support the raffle.
Vendors are people too and I know they look forward to events where they can unwind and just be themselves vice SEMA, Overland Expo, Outdoor Retailer etc. That's what the Rendezvous events are all about so if you work in this industry, but don't want to work, come on out!
If you are a vendor and are interested in getting in on sponsorship or the raffle please contact Staff Member Extraordinaire @Brett C via PM... thanks.
