12 - SWAG DONATIONS FOR SWAG BINGO AND LIVE AUCTION

You are invited to donate company swag for CITT/ICTS's one and only Swag Bingo! More than a CITT/ICTS tradition, Swag BINGO is an event that represents the very best of the organization. The event actually starts when the Trade Show floor opens, as all exhibitors will be given Swag BINGO cards to distribute to conference delegates! The more booths they visit – the more cards they get!
 
On Thursday August 15 evening all participants will gather for a notoriously entertaining evening of BINGO to try to win company swag as bingo prizes and donated items from the Live Auction. Swag BINGO is part corporate recognition, part social mixer, part fundraiser for The AFC – and a whole lot of fun!
 
Corporate members are welcomed to contribute to the cause by donating swag or auction items of good value. Items can be vintage, used or new and range from microphones, to speakers, to headsets and more! Please note that you will be responsible for shipping the items to the winners if you are in the impossibility to bring them with you to Saskatoon.
 
If you would like to donate company swag or auction items: Please indicate so by answering YES to the question 'I would like to donate company swag for the fundraising SWAG BINGO Night' in the Exhibitor Registration form. You may also contact us.
 
If you are not exhibiting but would like to donate, please contact us. Thank you!
