ITSS 2003

   The three-day event features a larger line-up of exhibitors than the initial event last fall, and it also moves down the Strip (Las Vegas Boulevard) to a new home: the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
   The independent event, not affiliated with a trade association or supplier, is the only exclusive stone-and-tile show slated for 2003 for the West Coast market.
   ITSS organizers plan to target fabricators, importers/distributors and others involved with day-to-day work in stone, as well as architects, general/installation contractors, engineers, interior designers and kitchen/bath firms.
   ITSS hours at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center (adjacent to the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino) are 9:30 a.m.-5 p.m. on all three days (Thursday-Saturday). Admission is free to members of the stone and tile industry.
   For those needing wheels at the show, the official car-rental supplier for ITSS is Budget Rent a Car of Las Vegas. Rates range from $27-$57 daily. For reservations, call 1-800-922-2899 or point your browser to
   www.budgetvegas.com. The promotional code for discounted rates is ITSS.
