Renewal contracts were sent electronically the first week of June so please check your inbox. Each year 80% of the exhibit space renews within the first 30 days, so don't delay! The deadline for all renewal contracts and deposits was originally July 5th. As a result of the recent Canada Post mail strike we have extended the renewal deadline to July 15, 2011. After the July 15th deadline, we will begin offering non-renewed spaces to exhibitors who have sent in their deposits, according to the allocation procedures. Reminder that cheques are to be made payable to Canadian Boat Shows and together with the contract are to be mailed to our office: Canadian Boat Shows 14 McEwan Drive West, Unit 8 Bolton, Ontario L7E 1H1 If you haven't received your contract or wish to discuss any space requests, contact Scott MacInnes at 905 951-4050 or smacinnes@canadianboatshows.com |

 It has been brought to our attention that faudulent calls and letters are still being sent to exhibitors. Most recently Fair Guide The Exhibitors Directory Guide. These parties claim to represent the Toronto Boat Show (re show directory advertising, hotel reservations), we ask that you remain cautious about entering into agreements or contracts, or releasing personal information - particularly credit card information - to any callers claiming to represent the Toronto Boat Show.
Please feel free to contact our office at any time to confirm if a caller is an official show supplier or to report suspicious calls.
