Events & Crops!

For those who love to scrapbook, a crop party is a fun event to take part in.  It is a great time to gather with friends and other scrapbooking enthusiasts, to share creative ideas, learn new techniques and get refocused on your projects.  You don’t have to be a scrapbooker to enjoy this crop, we have many guests who are card makers and stampers as well!

Whether it be scrapbooking, card making, stamping or paper crafting in general you won’t want to miss this crop. You will enjoy gathering with your friends or making new friends who are as crazy over the craft as you are.

Each cropper who attends will have an approximate 4’ x 24” space to create. Each table is set for a max seating of four people. This will give everyone the added space they need to complete their projects. Seating is first come first serve!

The crop area is quiet during the day. Many guests are shopping the showroom floor and attending workshops, so you can come and go as you please and create as you wish. During the evening hours we will be hosting a fun filled “Themed” party with prizes, contests and giveaways to keep you energized throughout the evening. Vendors will also join in the fun as they advertise their products and run exciting specials. Each location varies in crop themes, so be sure to check out the appropriate show location so you can create your table centerpiece or dress for the occasion!

Admission to shop the show room floor is sold separately.

NEW FOR 2018 - Seating at the Crops

We know how important it is for you to sit by your friends. Our crop hosts do an amazing job helping guests find seating together. If you have a party of Two, Four, Six or Eight guests and would like to reserve your seats prior to the event you are welcome to do so. Reserved seating is not necessary as all seating is on a first come first serve basis. However, this option is available to guarantee that your party will be seated together, without having to exercise our first come first serve policy. There is an additional fee to reserve your seats prior to the event.

  • Reserved seating is available for a party of 2, 4, 6 or 8 guests.
  • Each guest will need to purchase their own crop ticket online.
  • Once your party has purchased their individual crop tickets, one person from the party will need to visit our "Reserved Seating Application" to reserve your seats.
  • There is a $15 flat fee for Reserved Seating of 2; per day when paid online.

We ask that you PLEASE be respectful and do not move your tent card or other guests tent cards. All reserved seating tent cards will be marked with their row/aisle number for our crop hosts to assist guests in locating their reserved seating.

We ask that you please see your crop host if you have any concerns with your seating arrangements and they will be happy to assist.
