Dining Options
IGHR has partnered with the UGA Center for Continuing Education & Hotel to provide optional pre-paid meal plans. Meals will be provided in the private dining area within the conference center. The Bulldog Bistro and Savannah Room are also onsite but IGHR cannot guarantee they can handle a large group within the scheduled lunch period. One evening meal – Thursday – is included in IGHR tuition. Visit the Dining Options page to learn more.
