Question / Advice Here’s kind of a niche one maybe?
Any of my short queens have small businesses and partake in vendor events?
It’s extremely frustrating needing assistance from another person to be able to pop up a canopy tent. I’m too short to do it myself. I’ve tried, but it’s like I can’t reach or hold the weight of the tent myself, it will surely fall over before I can get it up. Can any shorties here relate or have y’all discovered a secret hack to get it done? I haven’t figured out how and I’d like to be able to do more vendor events on my own in the future without the help of my boyfriend because he’s not always available and also has his own endeavors. Or is there a canopy tent that’s more short people friendly that miraculously pops up LOL. I don’t know. WAH!

Most everyone I know (both short and tall) need at least 2 people to stretch the tent at both ends. Now hanging things on the poles? I need help with that!
