State Convention Registration
We do our best to guess how many people will show up to the convention each year. Please register so we will know if you are coming or not! This helps us to plan and to spend money more efficiently. We are also requesting a $10 contribution/registration fee to help offset the convention costs.
Register to Attend The Convention
Credential Pick-up
Goodman Building, SC State Fairgrounds 1200 Rosewood Drive, Columbia
Credential pickup for delegates will begin at 8 a.m. as you enter the Goodman Building on the SC State Fairgrounds. Counties will begin replacing absent delegates by credentialing their alternates at 9:15 a.m. If you are an alternate, check in at your county’s registration table when you arrive so they’ll know you’d like to become a delegate if there’s a vacancy.
SCDP Convention General Session
Goodman Building, SC State Fairgrounds 1200 Rosewood Drive, Columbia
The Convention will convene at 9:30 a.m. Delegates will sit with other delegates from their county. Alternates will have designated seating behind the Convention delegates.
During the General Session, we will celebrate our historic field of candidates, elect a state party 2nd Vice Chair to fill an unexpired term, and hear from special guest speakers like California Congressman Ro Khanna. Delegates will debate and adopt resolutions and will take up proposed changes to the SCDP Rules. You will receive proposed resolutions and rule changes in time to read them before the convention.
Convention Parking is available by entering SC Fairgrounds Gate 6 off of Assembly.
Gamechanger Luncheon
We will host a luncheon following the conclusion of the state convention (around 1pm). The luncheon speaker will be announced soon. You won’t want to miss out! Details will follow.
Gamechanger/Yellow Dog Lounge
Anyone who is a current member of the SCDP’s sustaining donor program, Gamechangers or who is a monthly donor to the state party and joined as a Yellow Dog Member, may go to the Gamechanger Lounge where food and beverages are provided during the convention hours. Gamechangers invest in the SCDP with a monthly recurring contribution or a one-time contribution of $120. You can become a Game Changer prior to the State Convention or at the Convention in the GameChanger Lounge.
