Jill,
I also have applied and should see something this week. I did see a comment a few months ago that one artist said he would leave his day job for 2 days due to doing very well years before. The lodging is really expensive hotel-motel. I did find a small motel not far for $100 per night and even looked into a cabin an hour away for $49 at a campground. Would live to get a nice room and split if needed. Hope you get in.

Several people were talking about it this weekend at the Gosport Show. I've heard in the past that it's a good show. The discussion this weekend stemmed from the windy day we had on Saturday in Portsmouth. Some people were comparing it to past events in Corolla. Apparently, they've had wind problems in the past there, so bring lot's of weights -- and good luck with the show.

There are local residents (including ourselves) who volunteer to have the artists stay in their homes for the fair.
You should contact the events coordinator at the Whalehead Club about this.
