APPLICATION REQUEST
April 21 and 22, 2012

 

All vendors and exhibitors who did not participate in the 2011 Show must apply to SUPERTRAIN 2012 by completing and submitting the Application Request form below. This is the first step in the application process. Next we will send you an Application form applicable to your Exhibit Category.

SUPERTRAIN 2011 Exhibitors will be sent an Application form automatically. An Application Request form is not required from those exhibitors.

The application process:

STEP 1 - Submit your Application Request form below to the SUPERTRAIN Committee (new applicants only).
STEP 2 - Receive an initial approval from the SUPERTRAIN Committee.
STEP 3 - Receive an Application form from the SUPERTRAIN Committee (by e-mail or regular mail as requested).
STEP 4 - Submit your completed Application form, with payment if applicable, to the SUPERTRAIN Committee.
STEP 5 - Receive your final confirmation from the SUPERTRAIN Committee.

Sending in your Application Request does not automatically guarantee space at the Show. The Show Committee will extend an invitation to selected vendors and potential exhibitors to participate. The Committee will use its best judgment to select from amongst all applicants those which it believes will provide the best over-all Show. Application forms, unless requested to be sent by regular mail, will be e-mailed in Excel format.

Application forms should be submitted as early as possible to ensure priority consideration in case of space constraints. Applications received after November 22, 2011 will be placed on a waiting list and considered as space is available.

Selections will be made and all applicants will be notified as to their status early in 2012. Additional information will be mailed to accepted applicants at that time.

The Show welcomes and encourages Junior modelers to enter exhibits or layouts. If you wish to display in this category, please indicate you are a Junior modeler in the appropriate box in Category 1 - Hobby.
