Stall Allocation at the Brindlewick Makers’ Fair

The Brindlewick Makers’ Fair committee is surveying past and prospective stallholders about allocating spaces at its next annual event. Hall repairs will reduce the space available. Returning sellers helped establish the fair, and some have already prepared stock, although nobody was guaranteed a stall. New applicants have previously struggled to obtain places. The committee must choose between giving returning sellers first access, with remaining stalls offered to newcomers, and holding a single draw that gives every applicant an equal chance.
