Because this year’s Expo spaces are a little farther off the beaten path, you’re going to want to take advantage of this opportunity to connect with Conference guests AND have lots of fun! Sign up to be given the opportunity to drive traffic to your booth with a special indicator in the Expo Guide PLUS some fun ways to connect with guests. Questions? Email Caitlin White at caitlin@wearecollectivechurch.com.
