Think Outside of The Box

A Conference for Youth Development Professionals, Abstinence Educators and Other Interested Professionals

Gwinnett United in Drug Education (GUIDE) Inc. is pleased to issue this call for exhibitors for the Think Outside of the Box Conference to be held on April 11-13, 2011 at the Wyndham Peachtree Conference Center.

 This interactive, engaging conference will serve approximately 250 adults who work with youth through abstinence education, prevention programs, afterschool programs and with other youth-serving agencies and organizations.

 The Think Outside the Box Conference has the potential to significantly boost your organization’s marketing exposure while raising awareness of your resources and services for youth and youth-serving adults and communities. We highly encourage your organization to take advantage of a one-of-a-kind opportunity to promote itself, increase brand awareness, and distribute information to a unique segment—literally hundreds of adults from across the state who are committed to improving their communities across the state of Georgia.

 This conference will feature nationally and locally recognized speakers, opportunities for team building, engaging workshops and a dynamite closing session to send our participants off  with the tools and motivation to take action. The conference theme, Think Outside the Box, highlights the fact that we need to push ourselves to do better than we’ve done before and think more creatively about how to use our limited funding, time and resources to be the best we can be.

 Exhibiting at this conference gives you an opportunity to partner with youth-serving organizations across the state that are dedicated to community-building and community improvement. You will have the opportunity to share your resources and services, share critical information, and promote yourself and your organization to this captive audience.

 Exhibitors will receive all the perks of conference registration including up to two nametags, 3 breakfasts, 3 lunches and conference giveaways, the opportunity to attend workshops and will have their organization name and description listed in the conference program. The option to upgrade the listing to a ¼, ½ or full page ad is also available and will be sent upon Exhibit Registration.
