The signs are available at the registration desk and will be provided to you when you identify the item being donated. This year, vendors will be asked to display their COMEDY NITE item at their exhibit table throughout the conference and during the COMEDY NITE event so that participants can determine which items they would like to try to win! In your portfolio, you will find a numbered gift bag that coincides with your exhibit booth number. During the COMEDY NITE event, please place this bag by your donated item. Participants will be dropping tickets into the bag throughout the evening. During the evening event, the announcer will assist MPTA in drawing winners for the items. Once again, thank you for participating in this fun and rewarding event! We hope that it increases booth traffic for your booth and that you have an opportunity to network with all of the participants.
