2024 NATIONAL CONCLAVE
Southern Charm and Quail Plantations meet Epagneul Bretons
Celebrate the Epagneul Breton breed with us this December 4-7 as our community gathers in Georgia for the 2024 National Conclave. Join in to build lasting memories, foster community connections, and pay tribute to the cherished bird dog tradition of the Epagneul Breton. Details listed below.
Locations
The 2024 Conclave will be held across two locations in west Georgia. On December 4, events will take place at Hal Avery's property near LaGrange, GA. From December 5 to 7, the events will move to the Hutwagner's property near Lumpkin, GA. While attendees may opt to stay in one location, it might be more convenient to arrange lodging near LaGrange for Day 1 and then relocate to accommodations closer to Lumpkin for the remainder of the Conclave.
