REGISTER  Yourself and Your End Buyers Here 

Do not register your coworkers here. This link is ONLY for one distributor sales rep and their clients. 


You may pre-purchase a lunch ticket for yourself AND/OR your clients during registration.  Tickets will be with the name badge at pick up.  

  • Should you decide against buying a lunch ticket for your client(s), kindly inform them beforehand that they have the option to buy a ticket on site with cash, VENMO, or a credit card. 
    • There was MUCH confusion last year with clients who expected a lunch ticket in their registration envelopes and questioned why they didn't have one.  This is not a conversation we want to have with your clients at the registration tables. Plan in advance to either purchase a lunch ticket for your client or let them know they can purchase their own on site. 
  • Clients must be registered in advance. For clients who arrive unregistered, the sales rep will be invoiced for double the regular fee. 

  • NOTE:  Client information will NOT be shared.
