Dear Vendor / Exhibitor;
Happy New Year to all of you from NCALTCF and our Members!
I would first like to thank the loyal partners we have returning each and every year – you are a real support system of this Association and its members. And to our potential newcomers, we welcome you to the NCALTCF family and look forward to including you in our successes and greater business opportunities for you and your company.
Our main event is the Annual Convention and Trade Show, which will be held in Winston-Salem, NC at the Embassy Suites Hotel and Benton Convention Center, 460 North Cherry Street, September 14th through the 18th, 2008. The Trade Show will be on Tuesday the 16th. You can find a copy of the 2008 Vendor Agreement in the Vendor Packet. This is a new location for our returning members. More details about potential changes will come to you later in the year.
The price for Associate Members is $50.00 and $700.00 for Exhibitor’s fee for a total $750.00. Additional booth space is available for $700.00 for each additional booth. This price entitles you to all Associate Member benefits for 12 full months. Please see the Association Application in the Vendor Packet.
Exhibitor benefits include:

Sponsorship is available for all NCALTCF events. Sponsors who contribute the most financially throughout the year, either directly or in-kind donations, to either the Association or the Education Foundation will be honored through our Gem Club as follows:
Please see information on our pricing for Sponsorship and Advertising in our Vendor Packet.
