FESTIVAL SCHEDULE

Friday's early schedule is designed for therapists to really have time to meet with the vendors. By having the vendors in place by noon, it will allow six hours for those therapists not wanting to go to the Symposium, to shop. Vendors always say, "Therapists are always in class", therapists always say, "the vendors left before I could visit." Let's see if this works better.

The afternoon should bring in the media and all the therapists with their questions for the Symposium. You finally can directly influence the industry. That evening you will be able to enjoy the Hall of Fame Reception. It will be GRAND!

DOOR PRIZES

Click here for a preview of door prizes that have been donated so far!

We had so many door prizes last year, almost everyone got something. But it took a long time to give all of them out, so this year there's a new way. Tickets for door prizes will be issued to each registrant and vendor at the time of check-in. Door prizes will be drawn every hour during Festival hours on Saturday & Sunday. The winning ticket numbers will be posted at the Registration Table and all you have to do is present your ticket to claim your prize. How easy is that?
