IMPORTANT: Please read and respond to this letter quickly. If you are not the decision maker for your organization please pass this to the correct individual. It is anticipated the number of vendors wishing to participate in this event will exceed our vendor limit.

The NYSLGITDA will hold our Annual Fall Conference Vendor Social in Watkins Glen, NY, at the Harbor Hotel and Conference Center, October 8, 2009. We are expecting more than 60 county, state agency and other local government CIOs, IT Directors and Senior Staff to attend. This is a great opportunity for Vendors to get to know local government IT decision makers from around the state.

Only 65 vendors will be authorized to attend on a first come first served basis. We currently have 26 vendors from our spring event already registered, so that leaves only 39 available slots! Please see the list below to see if we already have your company registered from the special opportunity offered from our Spring event. If so, you will receive a separate correspondence with alternate registration instructions.

Event Options

1. Vendor Social $600.00 One attendee per vendor. Vendor registration is from 4:00 – 4:30 pm followed from 4:30 pm - 10 pm by a social, dinner and teamwork - collaboration building event. We’re hoping for the weather to cooperate as most of our events will be outdoors this year. The hospitality suite will be open to all vendors after the event. Bottom line: Vendors get to spend over 5 quality hours with Local Government IT decision makers.

2. Vendor Sponsorship Opportunities:
Social and Dinner on Wednesday, October 7th $5,000.00
Lunch on Thursday October 8th $3,000.00

Includes all events in the previous option plus the following extra benefits:
- Exclusive access to attendees during your sponsorship event - no other vendors are allowed at the sponsored events.
- 15 minute presentation time during the meal if desired.
- Two tables at the sponsorship event for hand-outs, information display, etc.
- Up to three representatives at both the sponsorship event and vendor social event on Thursday night
