Rio All Suite Hotel, Las Vegas, NV
A Carnival of Learning, Networking and Professional Growth
Hello Exhibitors:
The exhibitor prospectus for the 39th Annual MRA Educational Conference and Trade Show is now available.
This year brings the show to the Rio All Suite Hotel in Las Vegas, NV on November 2nd, 3rd & 4th. Rio has given us a fantastic opportunity to bring our show to the next level by giving us almost double the space we have had in the past which gives us room for 72 exhibits. There is no doubt with the convenience and affordability of travel, the low room rates and added values to this year’s event, record attendance is expected.
For those of you who have participated in the past, you will see that we have added an additional incentive in your booth package. Included with each booth, a certificate will be awarded for one marina or boatyard attendee registration whether they are a member of MRA or not. This gives you the opportunity to share the educational value, networking experience and show to a marina or boatyard attendee who has never had the opportunity to be part of this great event. It’s also a wonderful way for you to give the gift of education to a client or potential client! The value of this incentive starts at $389.
Earlier this year, postcards were mailed out to marinas and boatyards who have never been a member of MRA or attended this event. It gave the first 18 who accepted, the opportunity to send one person to the conference for free if they joined MRA. We have already had some join and will continue to promote this until all 18 certificates have been awarded.
Another new added value at this year’s event is the opportunity for those who have been through the International Marina Institute’s (IMI) Certified Marina Manager (CMM) program to receive continuing education credits from some of the seminars that will be held. The conference committee is working with the IMI staff to set the courses that will apply.
For those of you who are not currently members and want to participate in this year’s event, there is a membership form on the last page of the exhibitor prospectus. Please click the following to download the exhibitor prospectus:
