Imagine the heart of Greenville just outside the confines of the
state convention. There’s shopping, dining, music and dancing in the
street. Now imagine not having to drive to these wonderful places.
That's just what this year's state convention offers you...plenty of
choices just a stones throw away from the Hyatt. Of course, we're
planning a lot of great convention events ourselves...Spikes Got
Talent Competition and Party, scavenger hunt for kids, prom night, NAHB education, Certified Master Builder education, golf packages
and more!
We’re talking three days full of education, leisure time, kids
activities and entertainment.
