newspapers and other literature outside exhibitor's assigned exhibit
space and at official Golf Industry Show hotels is prohibited.

- Annoyance. Exhibitors will take every reasonable precaution
to minimize the noise of operating exhibits. In the event that
any other exhibitor objects or protests to the noise level, show
management shall reserve the right to require the exhibitor to
cease operation of the exhibit or take measures to reduce the
noise level (over 85 decibels). Exhibitors are prohibited from
using objectionable amplifying or special lighting equipment.
Show management also reserves the absolute right to require exhibitors
(at exhibitor's expense) to change, alter, modify or remove all
or part of its exhibit or display booth.
- Floor safety. Show management reserves the right to stop
any product demonstration on the show floor which is determined
by show management to be a hazard or not consistent with the rules
and regulations of Golf Industry Show Management exhibit policies
or disrupt the show. Examples: Grinding machines without proper
safety shields, dangerous use of log splitters or hydraulic equipment
or any other mechanism that show management deems constitutes
a hazard or is otherwise inconsistent with the safety of the show.
It is the exhibitor's responsibility to operate in accordance
with all related federal and state rules and regulations.
- Product discounts. Exhibitors are encouraged to advertise
product discounts on future delivery orders in the exhibit area.
- Helium balloons. The use of helium balloons in exhibit
design and/or promotional activities is strictly prohibited, except
in the case of exhibitor sign/banner displaying company logo (minimum
dimensions are 4 feet by 4 feet). In the event any helium balloons
are released, all associated charges for retrieval will be borne
by the exhibitor at a cost per item. ALL helium balloon sign/banner
requests need to be approved by show management in writing 60
days prior to show.
- Gambling. The use of gambling or gambling equipment in

This includes the use of slot machines, roulette wheels, card

- End-capping. No bridging of aisles or end-capping of
booths is prohibited.
- Traffic flow. Visitors to the booth must be contained
within the perimeters of the same. No overflow into the aisles
will be permitted as fire regulations indicate all aisles must

the whole or any part of the space allotted to the contracting
firm without the express written consent of show management.

creed, national origin or ancestry.
- Booth dimenions. Booth dimensions and configurations
could change from the original floorplan(s) due to reconfiguration

lights (stroke, beacons, etc.) MUST be contained within the booth.
- Golf Industry Show directory. Show management will include
