Vendor InformationThe Florida Police Chiefs Association is holding its Mid-Winter Conference and Exposition from January 29th - 31st, 2012, at the Renaissance World Golf Village Resort, in St. Augustine, Florida and you are cordially invited to attend. Once again, we anticipate that booth space will sell out well in advance of the conference - don't get left out - send in your registration form today! If we do not receive your registration form by December 28, 2011 your company will NOT be listed in the Conference Program. Attendance and Location ...As our veteran vendors know, we broke all attendance records at our last mid-winter conference and exhibition space continues to sell out well in advance. We anticipate excellent attendance from our membership of over 750 police executives. We would like you to exhibit your latest, innovative products and services to these decision makers. Once again this year, we will send special invitations to local Sheriff's Offices, command staff, and purchasing personnel of surrounding departments, as well as corporate security directors, to view the exhibits free of charge. The Renaissance WGV Resort will host this training conference and exposition and will allow food and drink in the vendor area to enhance viewing hours. Vendor space will sell out quickly so don't delay ... to hold your place, mail, fax, or e-mail your registration form as soon as possible! Exhibit Dates ...

the vendor write their company name and initials on the Chief's assigned booths slip in order for them to receive door prize tickets. After receiving rave comments from our vendors,
we are once again using this unique concept. We will also use our popular vendor directory check-off and "Mystery Vendor" prize drawing during our Mid-Winter Conference
as these concepts continue to receive a positive response from our vendors. In order for our
members to participate in the prize drawings, they must get each vendor
to initial their conference program guide - one vendor will be selected as our "Mystery Vendor" and the chiefs who visit their booth will
be entered into a separate drawing for a special grand prize. Hotel Reservations...
