FOR INCLUSION IN THE CONFERENCE FINAL PROGRAM AND
SIGNAGE
Dear Friend of Gateway Partnerships:
On December 3-5, 2002, more than 500
people will gather at Santa Ana Pueblo, New Mexico, located between
Santa Fe and Albuquerque, to share ideas and experiences at a conference
titled: Gateway Community Partnerships for Tourism & Conservation.
Conference participants will represent travel and tourism organizations,
state and local governments, chambers of commerce, federal land
and water management agencies, private businesses and tribal nations.
On behalf of the Western States Tourism
Policy Council and cooperating federal agencies, I invite you and
your organization to participate as a conference sponsor. Sponsorship
illustrates your support for tourism and conservation partnerships
in the West.
Sponsors and exhibitors are important
conference partners. Your participation as an exhibitor will expose
the products and services you offer to potential clients. It’s good
for your business or agency and it’s good for the conference. I’ve
enclosed some information about this opportunity.
Exhibit space will be in the prefunction
and foyer areas immediately adjacent to the conference rooms to
provide prime viewing and accessibility. Displays will primarily
be table top, and in 10 foot spaces. Computer hookups will be available.
Over the three-day conference, there will be time set aside for
optimum exposure for exhibitors.
This will be the second event of its
kind in the West, and promises to be even more productive and valuable
than its acclaimed 1998 predecessor. It’s a great opportunity to
gain exposure for you and your organization among this community.
The primary focus of the conference
will be on gateway community partnerships, fostering better public
– private cooperation. Program tracks will include: technical and
financial assistance; agency planning processes; tourism management
and marketing; working with tribes; and highlighting special partnership
case studies.
If you have questions about sponsorship
or exhibiting at the conference, please contact Todd Davidson, Executive
Director, Oregon Travel Commission, and Vice Chair of the Western
States Tourism Policy Council, at 503-986-0007 or todd.davidson@state.or.us
We hope to hear from you soon!
Sincerely,
