AGC Labor and Employment Law Council’s
2023 Fall Meeting
October 26-28 | San Diego, CA
Members in good standing of the AGC Labor and Employment Law Council (“LELC”) are encouraged to attend the LELC’s annual Fall Meeting on October 26-28, 2023, at L’Auberge Del Mar, an award-winning San Diego luxury resort overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
While the primary purpose of the meeting is to develop the agenda for the LELC’s 2024 Construction Labor Law Symposium and to conduct other LELC business (this is not a CLE program), attendees will also have an opportunity to strengthen their network of fellow construction labor lawyers, hear about the latest labor law developments peers around the country are facing, and get more involved in the LELC.
The itinerary includes plenty of social activities, and spouses/guests are welcome to attend all events other than the Friday morning business meeting.
As usual, there is no registration fee for the meeting, and several meals will be provided to LELC members gratis. Guest dinners and everyone's boat activity fees will be charged back later to those who participate. See below for more info.
