ADA: In an effort to make all our events accessible for everyone we ask that you pay attention to the following accessibility guidelines from the City of Bend:
- Sales or service counters should be no more than 36 inches from the finished floor or the ground, and the width must be at least 36 inches wide.
- All paths of travel must be free from cords and other obstructions. Cords may be covered with rugs, but rugs must be taped down on all sides.

Children: THIS IS A 21 AND OVER EVENT (FOR THE MOST PART). DO NOT HAVE ANYONE IN BOOTH WHO IS UNDERAGE.
Cleanup: Restaurants must take every precaution to ensure grease does not spill onto the pavement. It washes into the drains and is a city health code violation. We recommend placing a tarp to cover your area and we require placing rubber mats down to catch the grease. If a restaurant leaves behind any trash or grease, the deposit will be used to return the site to pre-event conditions. Grease cleaning can be expensive, so we appreciate your help regarding this matter. Please check in with a LIOE representative before you leave so we can inspect your site.
Complimentary Meals: Each restaurant is required to provide 10 complimentary meals. LIOE will create and distribute food vouchers valued at $12 each. These will be used for our volunteers, entertainers and sponsors.
