Local businesses, non-profits urged to participate. Sign up now to become a RAGBRAI vendor in July

​There is still time to sign up as a vendor to sell food or other items when the Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI) comes to Guttenberg in July. 
June 1 is the deadline for vendors to register with the local Guttenberg RAGBRAI committee. Local churches, civic groups, organizations and local establishments are strongly encouraged to participate. 
Vendors offering both food and non-food items will be located in the south park and south marina on arrival day July 26. Most of the 12,000-18,000 riders, support crew, families meeting riders, etc., will be passing right by your booth. 
Vendors set their own prices. Vendors, offerings, and their locations and hours will be included on the Guttenberg RAGBRAI website and on the RAGBRAI town map that will be delivered to Oelwein the night prior. Vendors will need to be set up by 7 a.m. and vehicles cleared from the River Park Drive area. 
To apply to become an official vendor there is an online application available at www.guttenbergragbrai.com. Click the Forms menu at the top of the page and scroll to the bottom of the page. To ask for additional information, send an email to [email protected].
