Carolinas AGC Annual Convention

The Carolinas AGC Annual Convention is the premier membership gathering of the year. Top executives of member firms (general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and service companies) attend. This top-notch event is held each January at first-rate resorts. The conference-style convention includes seminars, general session, golf & tennis tournaments, events for spouses, entertainment, and most importantly, excellent networking opportunities.

Division Meetings

Division meetings are held twice a year—once at the Annual Convention and then again in the Spring/Summer months. Division meetings offer the opportunity for members of each trade (Building, Highway-Heavy, Utility, and Subcontractors) to swap ideas with others from within your own area of expertise, while learning about trade-specific issues that affect your business.

Division Meetings are posted on the Calendar of Events as they are scheduled.

You may also contact the appropriate Division staff for additional information on, or sponsorship opportunities for, upcoming meetings:

Utility Division (For GCs): NC & SC - Allen Gray agray@carolinasagc.org 

Subcontractor Division: NC & SC - Bill Stricker bstricker@carolinasagc.org

These gatherings range from dinner meetings to golf tournaments and are open to the entire membership. District meetings are not limited to only members located in the specific districts—members may (and should) attend any district meetings of their choosing.
