Volume 55 PENINSULA PRESENTATIONS SPRING 2021 SEE SPECIAL COVID-19 NOTES ON NEXT PAGE!! EXHIBITOR MANUAL
WELCOME &SPECIAL COVID-19 NOTES BELOW! Dear Exhibitor: Welcome to the start of the 28th year for Peninsula round table dinner presentations. In the majority of cities, these functions will begin with a one hour pre-show seminar commencing at 5:00 P.M. followed by a ½ hour trade show/reception and a 5 minute “sales call” by each exhibitor at round tables of 6-8 travel advisors. Dinner will then be served AFTER AND NOT DURING the round table presentations. After the events of this past year, we are all anxious to get back to work and it is imperative that we provide a quality product that offers optimum value and a competitive rate structure. We have made every effort to provide you, our customer, with qualified travel advisor attendees in superior function sites. We are confident that you will find your participation to be a productive and enjoyable experience. This manual is designed to facilitate your shipping and travel arrangements. Should you have any questions that are not covered in the following pages, please do not hesitate to call us at 1-800-278-3838. Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing all of you again soon. Sincerely, Joe DiBerardino, Vice President Attending our Shows this Spring! • With the obvious exception of eating and drinking, the wearing of masks will be required at all times during the Peninsula Travel Show • Anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 in the last two or three months should not attend the function unless they have been cleared for travel by their doctor. • All attendees and exhibitors will be required to sign a liability waiver upon arrival. • We ask that all attendees and exhibitors to please adhere to all safety protocols.

Brochures & Displays ATTENDANCE Our Presentations are designed to host a maximum of 80-90 retail travel agents. However, we sometimes visit cities where we can expect between 50-60 advisors in attendance. Therefore, it is not necessary to ship an extraordinary amount of material. Please note that we will not have the facility to carry any excess literature to the proceeding city/cities. EXHIBIT As a “tabletop show”, there will not be sufficient space for displays, banners, posters, that would FURNISHINGS normally be used in a standard 10’x10’ booth set-up. You are more than welcome to bring displays or banners provided they can be displayed on, or behind, a 6’ table. Should you wish to use a display that does not conform to these conditions, please call us and we will do all possible to accommodate you. Please note that each exhibitor will be provided with a 6”x14” tabletop sign. SHOW FORMAT / DAILY SCHEDULE 4:00-6:00 p.m. EXHIBITOR SET-UP / PRE-SHOW SEMINARS: Additionally, in most cities, there will be pre-show seminars conducted during the 5:00-6:00 p.m. hour. 4:00–5:00 and 5:00-6:00 p.m. PRE-SHOW SEMINARS 6:00-6:30 p.m. RECEPTION/TRADE SHOW: Agents and exhibitors exchange greetings and review literature while refreshments are served. 6:30-8:00 p.m. PRESENTATIONS: 5-6 minute individual presentations to groups of 6-8 agents. There will be sufficient “breaks” during this period to rest your vocal cords. 8:00-9:00 p.m. DOOR PRIZES / DINNER: Complete the evening with either a sit-down dinner or a buffet. Door prizes will be awarded prior to the serving of dinner (see Page 9). Page 3
Shipping Instructions DELIVERY DATES With the majority of hotels unable, or unwilling, to hold material in their package rooms for an extended period of time, plan on having your material arrive at the hotel no sooner than (3) days prior to the show date IMPORTANT NOTE: We suggest that you call each facility to reconfirm receipt of your shipment. LABELS Shipping labels for the material that you may be sending will only be sent to you upon request, as most companies either bring their own material to the show or use a mail house. SUPPLIES With our round table format, you will not have a need for a great deal of supplies since literature distribution will be minimal. We will have rubber bands, paper clips, pins, tape, marking pens, etc. available to you should you require them. Each attending travel agent will also be provided with pad/paper and pen/pencil for note taking during your sales presentation. Page 4
