  • Carpet

  • Electricity or any electrical services
  • Shipping or any freight handling labor

Note: Floor covering is required. Because a large number of exhibitors prefer to select and provide their own booth flooring, you must purchase carpet separately.

Interference with the light or space of other exhibits is not permitted. Island areas of 20' x 20' or larger, with the approval of management, may extend up to but not exceed 20 feet in height.

Failure to pay the balance by the deadline will subject the exhibitor to cancellation of the contract and forfeiture of all monies paid.

All cancellations must be made in writing to the Exhibits Manager.

No refunds or credits will be issues if an exhibitor chooses to downsize after the initial space selection. If the exhibits manager receives a written request for cancellation of space on or before October 1, 2019, the exhibitor will be eligible for a refund of monies paid less the 50% deposit. No refunds will be made in any amount, or for any reason, for cancellation notices received after October 1, 2019.

Failure to occupy booth space does not release the exhibitor from the obligation to pay for the full cost of the rental.

If booth space is not occupied by 4:00 p.m. on Friday, March 13, 2020, ASCD Exhibit Management will have the right to use such space as it sees fit in order to eliminate empty spaces in the Exhibit Hall.
