For the seventh year in a row, CTCC Community Days was ranked the Best Summer Event by people in northern Allegheny County, Beaver and southern Butler County.

Each year the three-day event continues to grow in both visitors, the number of carnival rides and the number of booths. An estimated 25,000-plus people attended last year.

All proceeds benefit more than 40 nonprofits and civic groups which makes Community Days a “Celebration of our Nonprofits and Civic groups” with over $175,000 going to benefit these groups.

What is the No. 1 favorite activity for visitors to do? It’s not the free concerts, the free rides for the children, the fireworks or even the carnival.

The No. 1 reason people like Community Days is — to visit all the booths.

There were more than 175 vendors taking up well over 200 booth spaces last year. Even more vendors are expected this year so the sooner you act the better your booth location.

Community Days, which is sponsored by the Cranberry Township Community Chest, will be July 7-9, and this is your chance to get the best location for your booth space. See our add for prices and also to lock into other ways to help promote your booth location including:

n Advertise in our CTCC Community Planner that goes to over 50,000 homes in three counties.

n Handout coupons: We will hand out a sheet of advertisements/coupons at the entrances to the park.

n 40-by-60 inch vinyl banners with your information and name.

n Recycle containers, a great way to advertise right in the park. Your 11-by-17-inch color ad, logo or message will be placed on an 18-by-18-by-36-inch cardboard recycle container on two sides.
