HBA of SC Pr esiden t 's M essage Lou ie Hopk in s, Hopk in s Bu ilder s The HBASC Convention is right around the corner and the month of October offers some of the best weather in Asheville .If you have never attended in the past, please consider joining us this year in Asheville, NC from October 6-8, 2023. The convention will provide you a guide to industry trends in the coming year which will assist you in your company?s profitability. One of the many benefits of the convention is the availability of award-winning national speakers and intensive continuing education courses, which I will cover in more detail below, but I truly look forward to the time to meet with my peers.

Many of my professional successes started from this time to meet with friends across the state to share ideas and to meet new friends who will help me build on my success. If you are looking for new business partnerships and opportunities or looking for opportunities that will affect your bottom line in a positive way then you need to be registered at this year?s state convention. Just a sample of the speakers and classes being offered at convention (below) should start you on a path of a very profitable 2024. We will also make sure to have enough time for networking and fun. Join us for a Murder Mystery and football tailgating. Please be sure to thank the sponsors of our convention. Without their support of the convention and our Association opportunities like these would not be made possible. I look forward to seeing each of you in Asheville, NC from October 6-8, 2023!

Local Happen in gs Operat ion Pat riot s FOB The Hilton Head Area Home Builders Association was excited to present Operation Patriots FOB (OPFOB) with another $4,000.00 contribution to their program. OPFOB is creating a place for Veterans to come together, relax and have a good time with their brothers and sisters. A space where they feel accepted and are able to open up without doctors hovering over them trying to analyze the worst days of their lives with a textbook diagnosis. Instead they?re given the opportunity to regain that connection to the people who will understand the most and ask the least.
