Parks and recreation professionals and service providers attend.
The size keeps it personal and easy for vendors to meet municipal buyers, and scholarships were available, but people wanting national-scale content or a large exhibitor pool would find it small.
Parks and recreation professionals usually dress in casual or business casual, often with fleece, company polos and outdoor footwear. Late October at a mountain resort in northern Vermont is cold, so layers and a warm jacket are advisable.
