We encourage exhibitors to offer an interactive activity, sample of services or giveaways at their exhibit.

    There is a non-refundable fee for commercial exhibitors and non-profit organizations. There is no fee for governmental (federal, state or county) agencies. An early registration price will be available until March 26. After that date a late fee of $25 will be applied to all exhibitors. Set-up will be from 2:00 - 3:00 pm; Exhibitors must agree to staff their exhibits until 6:30 pm. A hospitality center with light refreshments will be available for all exhibitors.

    Exhibitors may wish to provide a door prize (e.g., a floral arrangement, a gift item or certificate from your own or a local business such as a restaurant or food store, etc.). Please contact Sherri Anderson or call 703-669-5248 about door prizes. If you want your larger door prize advertised, please notify Sherri in advance. Door prizes will be given out each half hour during the event. Please bring it to the Registration Desk upon your arrival.

  • Check-in Procedure

    Thank you for exhibiting at the 13th Annual Loudoun Senior Interest Network Senior Expo.

    Vendor Check in Time: 2:00 pm -- (please do not arrive too early, the church also serves as a school and we don’t want to interfere with the children’s lunch time)

    Where: Vendor check-in is around the side of the church, please follow the signs we will have posted. There is a loading dock to help make your unloading and loading easier. You might find it easier to pull up to the loading dock and check in before you park. We will have a welcome packet for you and directions to your table. For safety reasons -- Please do not bring boxes or supplies through the front door.

    Please keep in mind that the hospital wellness vans will be parked in front of the church, so we are requesting that vendors park along the sides of the church. Thank you for your cooperation on this.

    Vendor Hospitality: We will have directions to the vendor refreshments at your arrival.

    Electrical outlets: These will not be available, again, for safety reasons. We are sorry if this creates an inconvenience for anyone.

    For more information and questions about the Expo please contact Susan Ballinger at 703-444-8283 or via email.
