2021 Annual Banquet and Awards Ceremony
2021 EVENT
The Annual Dinner planning committee would like to thank everyone who took part in this year’s Virtual Awards Celebration on January 14th, 2021. This year’s awards program was streamed for free to our members and the public and shortened from our normal program so we could focus on spotlighting our award nominees and recipients.
We encouraged our members to enjoy our virtual Pre-Event and Afterparty sponsored by Pepsi MidAmerica, which featured music by Eli Teller and 90s Kidz Band. The video is available on this page.
Online Silent Auction
This year’s Silent Auction was online and featured the same type of items enjoyed by attendees at previous events. This includes memorabilia, one of a kind items, jewelry, trips, virtual experiences and local items to enjoy all year round! Below are some of the items and experiences we featured this year.
