Nicely done, Mike. Just went to your website to poke around a bit. It's clean, informative, user-friendly. The name HH&F suggests you attract a wide variety of exhibitors - pretty much anyone interested in the exposure - yes? Thanks for sharing the info!

We don't do much off-site stuff; other than the Colgate Country Shwdown Championship that kicks off the Upper Missouri Valley Fair every year. We get 700-1,000 people.
We do host two "Ag Breakfasts" every fall, 1 in Montana and 1 in North Dakota; and we also host fou "Good Neighbor Breakfasts" each fall; 2 in Montana and 2 in North Dakota; but they are pretty small events.

This year will be our 19th Spring Expo. It is held each year in April and is mostly home and garden but all kinds of businesses participate...mostly out of town money! We also do the Colgate Country Showdown.

We produce a small Home and Lifestyle Show at the end of April each year. It's part of a city celebration and we've done it for years.

Our stations are hosting the 12th annual Palouse Empire Home & Garden EXPO. Click on the link to the EXPO website if you're interested in details, including exhibitor packages and agreement, initial floor layout (can expand to accommodate additional exhibitors).
We also co-sponsor a Bridal Fair in November, a good event - though not as major an undertaking as the EXPO.

Each spring we usually do a show of some kind. Last year we did a farm and home show. In 2008 it was "Taste of Home." This year we've decided to take a different approach, putting together a "health" expo. We've booked a date in April at the school. We have 2 gyms to use--one for the expo and the other for special presentations. This will be our first run at this type of show.

Wow, Kimberly, that's impressive! Is there a website connected with the show? Any chance you'd be willing to share details, sales materials, etc. here - fill in the back story, etc.? Love to learn more about what you did and how you did it!
