Dear Vendor:

The 27th Annual Public Safety Telecommunications Association 9-1-1 Conference will be held at the Crowne Plaza in Springfield, IL, October 16th - 19th, 2011. The floor plan, vendor information, and application form will be made available on the IPSTA website www.911conference.org by the end of March. Booth space will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis upon receipt of a completed application accompanied with payment in full. There will be a hospitality event in the vendor area on Sunday evening starting at 6:30 P.M. Vendor hours on Monday will be 10:30 A.M. to 4:00 P.M., and Tuesday 8:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M., with exclusive vendor exhibit hours on all three days.

Exhibit registration includes two (2) full registrations with identification badges and all event tickets. Additional exhibitor badges can be purchased on site for $35 each which entitles you to an identification badge for entrance to the exhibition hall only. Event tickets may be purchased separately.

Vendors interested in sponsoring specific conference events can contact our Conference Chair, Ms. Kathy Monken at kathylmonken@gmail.com. Attached you will find a list of the specific sponsorships along with associated costs.

There will be a drawing on Wednesday, October 19th at the closing session. Conference attendees will need to be present to win. If you would like to donate an item for the drawing and receive special recognition, please contact our Conference Chair, Ms. Kathy Monken at kathylmonken@gmail.com.

The host hotel for the conference is the Crowne Plaza, and the overflow hotel will be the Holiday Inn Express located adjacent to the Crowne Plaza. Vendors are responsible for making their own hotel reservations. The housing form on the website must be used to receive the conference hotel rates and early hotel reservations are recommended.

This will be the only mailing that you will receive regarding the vendor area this year; all other necessary information will be posted on the website. Vendors interested in offering presentations may download a request form from the IPSTA website.
