The cost of each table is $300.00. No space will be reserved for your company until we have complete payment for the exhibit space. Registration is done through the WAFLT website. You MUST use your company’s login and password in order to register. If you do not already have one, you will need to create a login for the WAFLT database. (You do not need to become a member of the organization.) As a result, you will be able to view any transaction you make via the website.
If you are interested in sponsoring an event or important item for our conference, you will have the opportunity to do so while you register for tables. There are a variety of opportunities at various price points available.
If you are unable to exhibit this year, but would like to support WAFLT through a sponsorship ONLY, this can be done using this form.
(Note: if you are exhibiting at the conference, do NOT use this form).
