Dear CoSIDA Exhibitor:
It is that time of year again...time to start thinking about the annual CoSIDA Workshop, and it is a pleasure to invite everyone to this year's affair in Calgary, Alberta.
We will be meeting at the Telus Concention Centre June 26-30. We've tentatively scheduled for the exhibit area will open for set-up at 8:30 a.m. on Sunday, June 27. We will again have our coffee and pastry in the exhibits area and will open Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 7:30 a.m. The exhibit area will run until 5 p.m. Sunday through Tuesday and until 3 p.m. on Wednesday.
We expect another large turnout and exhibiting at the Workshop will give you the opportunity to meet and greet sports information professionals from across the country representing major universities, small colleges, and conferences.
To facilitate shipping and the exhibit area set-up we will again contract with a company as a drayage and exhibition-set up firm. They will provide pipe and drape booths (8x10) with a table and chairs and will assist us in electrical and telephone hookup where needed. While this has added a little bit to the cost of a booth at CoSIDA, we feel it will be a much smoother operation for all concerned and that exhibiting at CoSIDA is still a bargain. Those wishing a double booth should call or email me as soon as possible to assist in setting up the exhibit area.
You'll be interested to know that we are keeping our rates the same. And after having a look at the Convention Center in Calgary, CoSIDA has decided to not only have our Job Seekers sessions in this area, but also our extremely popular Table Topic breakout sessions here as well. This should insure plenty of exposure for all of our exhibitors.
Additional information on setting up your booth will be provided upon receipt of your registration check.
An exhibitor's contract is located on the "Forms" section of CoSIDA.com in a pdf format.
You are entitled to the workshop rate at the hotel and a copy of the hotel registration form will be available soon on CoSIDA Online (coside.com) and in future copies of the CoSIDA Digest.
I look forward to hearing from you soon and to seeing you in Calgary.
Best,
