Exhibitor Information Overview

Plans for CRASH 2012 are complete! Appended is the agenda for the program to be held in Vail, Colorado Sunday, 4 March - Friday, 9 March 2012.

Almost 339 anesthesiologists, residents, and CRNAs from 41 states and 6 countries were in attendance at CRASH 2011. This is an exciting and popular meeting that I feel you will not want to miss!

The Vail Marriott Mountain Resort & Spa will again host the conference. As in previous years, we will set up booths in the Exhibit Hall during the buffet breakfast and afternoon refreshments, interspersed throughout the hall. Participants MUST pass the Exhibitors to get anywhere near the food! We also provide multiple times during the course of each day for you to mingle with the participants.
