ID BADGES

It is required that you and your guests wear an Identification Badge for all Conference functions. The ID Badge will distinguish your chosen meal plan, and it’s your ticket into all Conference seminars, business meetings, exhibit hall and the hospitality room. This is very important, and your cooperation is greatly appreciated to ensure a smoothly run Conference for everyone.

EXHIBIT HALL

The Exhibit Hall will house the vendor and membership booths on Sunday and Monday. Throughout the first 2 days of the Conference, the Exhibitors are your source for raffle tickets towards prize giveaways and this year’s Exhibit Hall Raffle with a chance to win up to $500 (Member registrants ONLY). Beyond that, our Exhibitors are the key to the best of all resources and offer a wide range of companies, products and services, many of which have been discounted specifically for this event! A welcome cocktail reception will be held at the opening of the hall on Sunday, and both a morning coffee break and lunch buffet will be held in the Exhibit Hall on Monday. Please refer to the listing of Exhibitors included in this program.

EDUCATION AND TRAINING

An impressive agenda of training has been scheduled for 2013 (see Official Program Schedule for times and details). Seminars and Presentations on a variety of topics, nationally known speakers and information booths of valuable resources are all available to you throughout the week.
