2009 UW-Stout Optimal Health Fair

FOR VENDORS

We hope you will be able to participate in the annual UW-Stout Health Fair on Wednesday, April 1st, 2009. The fair will be in the Sports & Fitness Center and is open to UW-Stout employees, students, and the local community. Last year we had over 425 attendees!

In lieu of a main speaker this year, we will be hosting a series of mini demonstrations throughout an extended lunch period so that all attendees can get a bit of something extra special! Details will be posted on our new OH blog site at http://uwstoutoptimalhealth.blogspot.com/

WHEN: Wednesday, April 1st, 2009
The fair begins at 10:00 a.m. and ends at 3:00 p.m. Please plan to keep your exhibit(s) open for the entire five hours, and to be set up and ready when we open at 10:00 am.

WHERE: Sports & Fitness Center, MPR Gym, Room 50, lower level
220 13th Avenue East, Menomonie, WI 54751

BOOTH: One “booth” will consist of one 6’ table and 2 chairs. Additional booths may be requested.

There will be a $25 fee this year for non-government funded and for-profit organizations and businesses. This nominal fee will help to offset basic set up costs. Thanks for your understanding.

Note: if you plan to bring larger equipment that will be next to your table, please indicate so on the form so that additional space is allowed. There is no fee for additional space.

SET UP: You may begin setting up your booth at 9:00 a.m. Signs will be posted to identify each vendor’s booth. Plan to be completely operational by 9:45 a.m.

UNLOADING: If you have large/heavy equipment that needs to be unloaded, the easiest access is via the sidewalk on the east side of the building (3rd Street, across from the outdoor track). Go in the door to the right of the ramp. We will have staff assisting with unloading. Follow the signs on the east side of the building.

PARKING: A parking permit will be given to you on the day of the event. The permit will allow you to park in Lot 29 which is located directly east of the Sports & Fitness Center on 13th Avenue.

REGISTRATION: Please send the registration AND liability forms (and fee if applicable) to the address below no later than Wednesday, March 4th, 2009.
