It’s time to make plans to participate in the 2016 PHCCLA
Annual Convention and Trade Show in Marksville!
The Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors of Louisiana (PHCCLA) invites you to participate as an exhibitor at the
2016 PHCCLA Annual Convention and Trade Show at the Paragon Casino Resort. This annual event has provided an
important venue for interaction between plumbing-heating-cooling contractors, PHCCLA members, and other industry
professionals. Contractors, Master Plumbers and Journeymen Plumbers come to view the latest products, services and
trends in the ever-changing plumbing-heating-cooling profession.
As one of the main highlights of the convention, the trade show is open for three hours without any conflicting events
or CE programs. Attendees will have incentives to visit each vendor with door prizes to be drawn during the last thirty
minutes of exhibiting time. This trade show format provides exhibitors a concentrated time to spend with attendees
and to maximize networking opportunities.
We look forward to a successful show and thank you for your support. Please contact Crystal Carter with the
PHCCLA staff with any questions.

materially interfered with by reason of action of the elements,
strike picketing, boycott, embargo, injunction, war, riot,
emergency declared by a governmental agency, or any other
act beyond the control of PHCCLA, the contract for exhibit space
may be terminated. PHCCLA will not incur liability for damages
sustained by exhibitors as a result of such termination. In the
event of such termination, the exhibitors expressly waive such
liability and release the Association of and from all claims for
damages and agree that the Association shall have no obligation
except to refund to exhibitors pro-rated shares of the aggregate
amounts received by the Association as rental for exhibit spaces
after deducting all expenses in connection with such exhibits,
including reasonable reserves for claims, such deduction being
hereby specifically agreed to by the exhibitor.
