Please be sure to wear your badge at all times. Make sure that there is personnel at your booth during all open hours, as the guests are encouraged to visit the exhibit when convenient for them, not all guests will attend all sessions. Additionally, the trade show floor is open to CPRA (Colorado Parks and Rec Association) guests, and their schedule is slightly different from PHiR. CPRA brings an additional 300-400 people to your booth.
Booth Location
When you arrive to the Conference Center to pick up your conference badge we will direct you to your exhibit table. Your table assignment has been pre-assigned, see below for table numbers. There is no table swapping allowed. These are easily accessed from the general session, meal functions, and some breakout rooms.
Exhibit Passport & Prizes
To encourage attendees to visit the tables, we will have the Passport to Prizes at the Public Health in the Rockies conference. Please sign each attendees card on the Exhibit Passport after the attendee has visited you. Once the card is filled out by the attendee they will turn it in for prize drawings that will take place on Friday morning. If you would like to contribute to the prizes the attendee is eligible to win for visiting your table, please bring that prize with you and drop at the registration table.

High Altitude Sickness
A high-altitude climate can affect people in various ways. While many people never feel the effects, some come down with a few basic symptoms, including headaches, loss of appetite, dizziness and trouble sleeping. Luckily, there are a variety of simple treatments to combat your sickness. First and foremost – Stay Hydrated – Stick with water or liquids that replace electrolytes. Avoid sugary or caffeinated beverages such as soda-pop. These liquids act as diuretics and can dehydrate you. Drink lots of water! Eat Right – A meal high in carbohydrates will improve your body’s ability to absorb oxygen, and will give you the energy needed to adjust to the elevation. Take it Easy – Over-exerting yourself will only make it harder to adjust to the elevation. Try a low-impact activity on your first day. If symptoms still persist, seek treatment at St. Anthony Summit Medical Center in Frisco to ensure your trip is pleasurable.
On-site Contact Information
