Marketing your company ...
FPCA's
unique vendor directory check-off concept will be used again during our Summer Conference as it continues
to receive a positive response from both the Chiefs and vendors. In order for our members to participate in the
prize drawings, they must get each vendor to initial their vendor card. At the end of the Expo, we will also ask each vendor to submit the names of
three Chiefs they feel best participated in the Exhibition and three Chiefs receiving the most votes will win valuable door
prizes. Once again, this process is anonymous with votes tallied by FPCA staff. Perhaps your
company would like to contribute an item or sponsor an event? If so, then please give us
a call or include the information on your registration form and we will follow-up with the
designated contact person.
Hotel Reservations ...
Hotel accommodations will be handled directly by the Saddlebrook Resort (phone

With the holiday, you might consider bringing your family and turning this business trip
into a vacation as the Saddlebrook Resort has graciously extended the
