Lessee shall hold harmless the Wisconsin EMS Association Staff, Board of Directors, Conference Committee, Resch Expo, or any of their agents for any liability, or personal injury to themselves or their agents, and/or loss or damage to personal property or company property during any portion of the conference. 
  8. Lessee will be allowed to set up their booth space on Tuesday, February 3rd, 2026 between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. CST for helicopter vendors only. All vehicles must be placed by 3:00 p.m. CT Wednesday, February 4th, 2026.
  9. Lessee will be allowed to set up their booth space on Wednesday, February 4th, 2026 between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. CST for all other exhibitors.
  10. Preferred booth location will be selected by the Lessee at time of booking. Changes to the layout of the exposition hall and/or location of the booth may be made at any time at the discretion of the Wisconsin EMS Association. Exhibit hall floor layout will not be final until mid-December 2025 unless otherwise indicated. 
  11. All Resch Expo buildings are "non-smoking" facilities, and smoking is not permitted inside any of the buildings. We do not restrict smoking on outdoor areas of our premise, and are grateful for everyone's help in preventing litter and inconvenience to others. Please inform exhibitors, production personnel and others about this policy. 
  12. The premises must be vacated by 8:00 p.m. on Friday, February 6th, 2026 but not before the official show closes on that date. A $250.00 fee may be accessed if the booth is vacated prior to the official show close on Friday. 
  13. Per WEMSA policy, no exhibitor is permitted to dismantle their booth prior to 5:15 PM on Friday, February 6, 2026. Early teardown creates a significant safety risk for attendees, staff, and fellow exhibitors and must be strictly avoided. Beyond safety, early dismantling negatively impacts the attendee experience and undermines the professionalism of the event. To ensure a safe and successful expo, all booths must remain fully intact and staffed until 5:15 PM. Please plan your travel and logistics accordingly. Load out will be allowed once attendees have vacated the Exhibit Hall and will commence with approval from the Resch Expo facility staff.

The Village of Ashwaubenon requires such booths to be equipped with portable fire extinguishers.
