Village of Shops participants are selected by a jury from the Aiken Steeplechase Committee. We select vendors who provide the diversity to reduce competition and to satisfy patrons of the Aiken Steeplechase race meets. Priority will be given, but not guaranteed, to past Village of Shops participants and vendors who select the Spring/Fall Deal, which begins in the Spring of each year. Please review the Village of Shops Policy Statement below and fill out the form to submit your application.
