The spotlight of this black-tie optional event will be the presentation of the Gold Medal Award, the highest honor bestowed by the association, who will be announced later this Fall. We will also be celebrating all of our past presidents, without whose leadership we would not be celebrating this wonderful milestone anniversary.
