HAPPY HOUR FOR OUR HEROES
backpack
Space is Limited! Register to join the attendees in service, socializing and cinema.
Enjoy a movie night after you've broken down your booth! On Thursday evening, join our attendees in a service opportunity for Hearts Apart stuffing backpacks with needed items for the children of deployed Veterans, in cooperation with McConnell AFB. Once complete, we'll have a movie night with treats and a showing of the film Black Hawk Down depicting Thursday's keynote lunch speaker, First Sgt. Matt Eversmann. RSVP and find a list of needed backpack items here (no purchase necessary to attend but we would appreciate your backpack donations)! Many thanks to Cox Communications for supplying the backpacks and Foulston Siefkin for sponsoring the event!

DO YOU HAVE AN APP GAME PLAN?
You provide the game questions, we'll provide the prizes for attendees that visit your booth!

Plan to be a part of the Military Plan Conference app game. The Military Plan is designed with one goal in mind - to get attendees interacting with the generals in your booth. Play the game and have a chance to actually have a face-to-face conversation with attendees while they learn more about your company. It's a WIN for everyone and it's FREE to participate.

All you have to do is submit two questions that include information you want attendees to know about your company, in addition to submitting the correct answer along with two incorrect answers so attendees will have multiple choice options to choose from. As long as you put some thought into your questions, attendees will need to visit your booth to determine the answers - and that's your chance to shine!

During each Marketplace event, for every correct answer attendees submit, they'll be entered into a drawing for $25 Amazon gift cards . KS SHRM will supply the gift cards and we'll have plenty to give away. There are so many opportunities for attendees to WIN just by visiting your booth for the app game.

Submit your questions here to join in the fun or contact the KS SHRM office for more explanation!
WI-FI & ELECTRICITY

Complimentary Wi-Fi is available for all Partners. Basic electricity is provided for our Chain of Command Partners who advise us of their electrical needs in advance. Exhibitors may order electricity for an additional fee during registration.
