Come to Wilmington!
Your convention committee and AIBD staff are in the thick of planning the 2012 National Convention, being held this year in Wilmington, North Carolina, August 5-8. That's a Sunday - Wednesday, something new for us.
These pages will be updated on an ongoing basis so check back often. You're going to have a great time in Wilmington! We'll be based at the Hilton Wilmington Riverside, with a very reasonable guest room rate of $139. Navigate to the registration page to find reservation information. Our social events will be held near the hotel at architecturally and historically significant locations. The convention education subcommittee is excited about the two-day program we are putting together. Wilmington has a lot to offer, including the Cape Fear River, nearby coastal beaches, interesting shops, historic homes and buildings, and the WWII battleship U.S.S. North Carolina.
Start making plans to attend the 2012 AIBD National Convention!
Pre-Convention Activities
Habitat for Humanity
Last year in Grand Rapids a few AIBD members, staff and one spouse put on our work clothes and helped landscape a new low-income home built by the Inner City Christian Federation. This year we'll be working with Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity on Saturday, August 4, from 8:00 a.m. - 1:00 pm. We hope you'll join us for this very satisfying charitable work project.

NCBDC will administer a certification exam on Friday, August 3 (8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.) and Saturday, August 4 (8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.)
