Looking for tips for first event

My club will be doing a show in late February (week after our science fair most likely which is the 21st) and I am looking for some tips on what you think would be a good way for me to go about with this. We will need vendors and some layouts but I am looking for help on how people think I should get them and plan. Some plans I do have include:

Get adult help of course

Make a table layout (in each room) plan in Sketch Up/Drawn

Find out who will need power/extension cord

Merit Badge Academy time again

Well, here we are, the National just having ended and registration for the next Merit Badge Academy opens up on Monday.  The council has added a 5$ craft fee to the merit badge, but considering what the scouts walk away with it is still the most popular merit badge at the academy.

Portland National Train Show layouts from 2015

Had a great time at the National Train Show this past weekend. Here are a few of the photos that I took of the layouts. Probably the most impressive was the Freemo-N layout that covered 80' x 100 with a lot of the layout viewed from both sides.

Friday, Day 1 of the National Train Show

Today I changed my shirt.

Okay, after you get done with the "ewwww"s, I'll have it known that I did have two of those orange PDX 2015 staff shirts. And I wore them both.
