It was a great night of celebrating milestones and dancing for the first Awards Celebration on May 26th. Around 340 people attended the celebration located at the Hyatt in Coralville. While we have had Awards Ceremonies in the past, this one was taken to a higher level with a prom style dance that was added after feedback from the people we serve.
There were eleven award winners that had accomplished long-standing goals or have overcome adversity. This year, they received a statue instead of a plaque for their achievements and their name was called from gold envelopes.
Everyone put on their best dress or formal wear and walked into the ballroom on a red carpet. Hors d’oeuvres and a photo booth were added to the event for even more fun.
Congratulations to the award winners and thanks to everyone for making it a great night!
