ITS TIME AGAIN FOR THE BEST STATE ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE IN THE NATION!
The theme for the 87th Annual National Guard Association of Mississippi conference is “The Wild Wild West)
May 2-4, 2025 at the Natchez Convention Center in Natchez, Mississippi.
Register now at Exhibitor/Patriot Partner Registration
All exhibit booths will be set up in the open areas on the same floor as the business session in the Natchez
Convention Center. This area will accommodate all prospective exhibitors and give you high visibility because our members will enter the business session through this area. Exhibitors can start setting up at 9:00 a.m. on Friday and tear down after the conclusion of the business session on Saturday at approximately 12:30 p.m. Breakfast for Exhibitors will be offered Saturday morning at 7:00 a.m.
Each space is 8’ x 8’ and will include a 6’ table draped with a sign showing the exhibitor/organization name. The
cost of an exhibit space is $400.00 for non-Patriot Partners and $150.00 for Service Organizations. (Note: Patriot Partners do not pay this cost). This is part of the cost of renting the area and having the booth prepared for the exhibit area. This is being offered as a service and is not an income-producing activity for NGAMS.
