Meet the Builder
Meet the Builder is a Members-Only event that is a fun and exciting way to establish new relationships and reconnect with home builders and remodelers. Think of it as “speed-dating” with CEOs, CFOs, owners and purchasing managers from NVBIA’s national, regional, local and custom builders. Each builder has its own exhibit space at the event. Associates will have five minutes of uninterrupted time to discuss their products and services with each builder. It is a perfect opportunity for Associates to get in front of our Builder members’ decision makers in a single night.
Crab Feast
The Annual Crab Feast is NVBIA’s most popular summer event! In addition to Maryland crabs, attendees can enjoy plenty of shrimp, hot dogs, hamburgers and all the fixins while networking with fellow NVBIA members and making new connections. We are excited to welcome the sound of the Anthony “Swamp Dog” Clark band.
