Description:

The Androscoggin Pet Expo will be May 12-13, 2012 at the Lewiston Armory, 55 Alfred Plourde Parkway in Lewiston.

85 Exhibits plus Activities, Demos, Workshops & Hourly Door Prizes!

We are now actively accepting applications for exhibitors (pet product retailers, animal rescue leagues, photographers, farms, animal trainers, clubs & organizations, animal whisperers, you name it!)... for workshops & events (there will be 2 per hour each day in separate classrooms)... and for the designated non-profit for the event (RFP application form is available).

You and your family will have a great time, with different activities and events both days!

... Door Prizes every hour, approximately on the hour
... a Doggie Dress Up Contest with a parade around the Main Hall on Saturday
... a Kittie Dress Up Contest and parade on Sunday
... for the kids who can\'t have pets for some reason, we\'ll have a stuffed animal contest
... there will be an animal sounds contest (do you think we should have one for adults AND kids, or just for the kids?)
... we\'re finalizing details on some great canine agility demonstrations

Exhibitors will have demonstrations at their booths, and many will have giveaways, too.

And of course, the show will feature Foot Stompinâ Oldies Sing-Along Musical Entertainment by â« The Old Pirates â« band from 12:30-4:30 both days.

If you represent or know of a non-profit that would like to apply for \"Designated Non-Profit Status\", please ask for a copy of our one page RFP.
