Many of our exhibitors are experts in their fields, We encourage you to ask them questions and to learn from them.
When an exhibitor takes the time and effort to explain a product or give beneficial advice, please buy the product from the exhibitor who took the time with you, rather than a competitor.
Buying materials from the exhibitor who took the time with you fosters an atmosphere of trust and sharing. It also encourages the return of knowledgeable, quality exhibitors to our annual conference.
We are pleased to offer the opportunity for registered exhibitors to present exhibitor workshops during the conference.
Exhibitor workshops present either product demonstrations, introductions to services, or general interest sessions that may benefit your family.
We encourage you to attend exhibitor workshops in addition to the featured speaker workshops hosted by Homeschool Iowa.
