2011 Southern Rio Grande EMS Conference

Region II EMS is proud to announce the dates and locations for the 2011 Southern Rio Grande Emergency Medical Symposium.  The conference will be held at the NEW Las Cruces Convention Center.  The new convention center provides the perfect atmosphere for vendors and attendees to interact and learn.  The exhibit hall allows for vehicles and other large displays.  Vendors will also now have an “island” style option allowing traffic from all directions as opposed to the traditional “booth” set up. 

The conference will be held November 7-12, 2011 with the vendor area opening November 10 and closing on November 12.  This year we will be offering a new series of continuing education for our attendees focused on new technology and product updates.  There will be at least four sessions offered that will allow vendors to provide presentations on new products and technologies in a classroom setting.  If your firm has new and innovative products that you would like to showcase please contact us as soon as possible to reserve a session.

Additionally, Region II EMS will be offering a full range of vendor and sponsorship opportunities that will be sent to you in the near future.  We appreciate your past contributions and look forward to partnering with you again at our NEW venue.
