RE:                  WSLEFIA Summer Conference  2014

=========================================================================

            WSLEFIA invites you to attend our annual instructor conference to display or demonstrate your firearms related products. Each summer about 100 firearm instructors from Northwest Law Enforcement agencies meet for training and review of current trends and products. Most of those officers attending play an important role in deciding what weapons, ammunition, and range safety gear etc. a department will purchase. We make space available to suppliers or manufactures that wish to show and or demonstrate their products. This year we will be in Richland, WA. Conference Hotel is the Hampton Inn. Reservations can be made by calling (509) 943-4400.

            This year, the afternoon of Tuesday July 22, 2014 (1200-?) in the Hampton Inn "Riverview Room", will be set aside for a Vendor Show.  On Wednesday July 23 and Thursday July 24th,  we will make available space on the ranges for those who want to demonstrate a particular product. For example: ballistic vest tests, demonstrate certain ammo, or specialized range equipment. Please indicate on the attached registration what you would like to do, along with what your needs are, how many times you will do your demo, or if you need to be set up all day. Our new venue in Richland and the Rattlesnake Mountain Shooting Facility has been a great success. We plan on having enough range space to accommodate all who need a range. Some may have to share; we will do our best to make you comfortable.  Agency buyers are present at the event. We are in the dessert so be sure to be prepared for hot dry windy weather, temperatures can be in the high 90’s to 100’s and the wind can blow in the afternoon.

            If you wish to participate, please complete and return the registration form. You may join WSLEFIA as a corporate member for an annual fee of $300.00 or equivalent merchandise provided to the Association for give-away. This membership entitles you to attend Association events, show your products and receive the newsletter and or access to our web site for 1 year.
