Vendor Fair
Tuesday, Jan. 23 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. | Grand Foyer at the Golden Nugget Hotel – Lake Charles
You can begin setting up your booth at 10 a.m. Attendees will start arriving at 11 a.m.
When you arrive, stop by the registration table to receive your badge card and table assignment. If you requested an electrical outlet, a power strip will be provided. You may want to consider bringing your own extension cord and any other needed equipment, cords, etc., just in case. It never hurts to be extra prepared!
Handouts + Awards
We encourage you to make your booth as interactive as possible. Games, handouts, swag and giveaways are great ways to connect with attendees and keep the event fun. Plus, this is the perfect time to either acknowledge First Financial team members or present them with awards. We’d love to spotlight outstanding employees who have exceeded your expectations, so please let Summer know if you have any awards or giveaways to pass out. Each attendee will be required to visit your booth and will hand you a card to mark off that they have done so. We will have around 110 attendees not including vendors.
