The INAFSM Annual Conference Committee invites your highly valued support for the 2016 Annual Conference & 20th Anniversary Celebration as an exhibitor or event sponsor. The Conference Celebration is scheduled for September 7 – 9 at the beautiful Belterra Casino Resort & Spa in southeastern Indiana; 777 Belterra Drive, Florence, IN 47020.  We will need much appreciated financial support from companies like yours to make this an unforgettable celebration and premier educational event. An estimated 350 participants are expected to attend this Conference Celebration event.  With your support, it will be a great opportunity for you to promote your company or organization to Indiana’s floodplain and stormwater managers, elected officials, agency representatives, engineers, planners, and designers along with other industry professionals.


GOLF OUTING AND VENDOR SHOWCASE

We are busy planning for a really great bash for our 20th Anniversary Conference and would love to make sure you are a big part of it. Golfers will want to come early for the September 6 golf outing at the world-renowned golf course designed by the legendary Tom Fazio. On Thursday, September 7, we will kick off the INAFSM Conference with an excellent line-up of presenters, and will follow with the Vendors Show Case immediately before our dinner and entertainment. On Thursday September 8, we will have another good line-up as well as Vendor Speed Dating right before the Awards Luncheon. On Thursday evening we take a shuttle to the Warsaw, Ky. Town Park on the shore of the Ohio River for the Cook-out and live music. There will be many networking opportunities throughout the week. We look forward to seeing you in 2016!

Please submit your sponsorship commitment by August 1, 2016.
