    Expo Locations and Registration

    We are working hard to finalize our Expo dates and locations and hope to have that information to you soon. To register for an Expo you will receive a link to sign up in an email like this one once registration is open. Once you register, you’ll receive an invoice to pay the event registration fee of $50. When both registration and the fee are completed, you will be confirmed in your event. Event registration will open in the fall, and the date will be announced as soon as all dates and locations are confirmed.
