Contract for Space
The Exhibitor Booth Contract must be completed in its entirety and accompanied by the appropriate payment for the number of booths requested. No contracts will be processed or space assigned without booth payment. The signed contract and subsequent notice of assignment constitute a contract between the California Association for the Education of Young Children (hereinafter referred to as CAAEYC) and the exhibitor. Any point not specifically covered in these regulations is subject to the decision of CAAEYC, whose decision shall be final.
Refund and Cancellation Policy
Notice of cancellations must be made in writing (no exceptions) to CAAEYC. Cancellations received on or prior to February 23, 2018 will result in CAAEYC retaining 50% of the full rental cost of the booth space. No refunds for cancellations will be granted after February 23, 2018. CAAEYC shall not be liable for any interest on the amount refunded.
Assignment of Space
Booth space will be assigned at the discretion of CAAEYC with due regard to history of participation. 2016 and 2017 Exhibitors will be given first priority. Assignments will be made according to postmark date. Payments must be made before assignment of space.
CAAEYC will attempt to assign requested spaces. However, exhibitors must be aware that other requests may have been made for the same booth space. The decision of CAAEYC, with respect to booth space, will be final and binding upon all exhibitors.
CAAEYC prohibits and enforces that exhibitors may not assign or sublet any part of their allotted exhibit space to another business or firm without the advance, written permission of CAAEYC. Contracts for exhibit space are between CAAEYC and each individual exhibitor, not between exhibiting companies. Therefore, the subletting of space is grounds for CAAEYC’s termination of any contract that exists and all monies paid will be forfeited.
