Connection Re-Invented: The First Ever Hybrid Holiday Gala

There is a first time for everything, right? Well, this year the Holiday Gala will be held both virtually and in-person, on Tuesday, December 7th. And it will be the first ever hybrid event in the history of the Holiday Gala! What an exciting moment! 

Most of you are familiar with this event but for those of who aren’t, we assure you that you don’t want to miss it. The holiday Gala is over 10 years old and repeats year after year because the positive feedback it receives. In my humble opinion, it’s the best event to network. Did you know that according to Forbes, 85% of professionals say they develop their most valuable client relationships through networking? Who knows who you will meet at the Holiday Gala, and what they will add to your life! 

It’s also a great opportunity to gather and celebrate the holidays with your peers. This year’s theme is “Festival for Reconnection” – with the primary objective to encourage reconnection after a year of virtual meetings. We all crave it, especially after a particularly challenging year for our industry. 

The Holiday Gala is an excellent chance to give back to the community. We have once again partnered with the BREAKFAST WITH SANTA FOUNDATION. This foundation works within the community to provide nutritional solutions and life skills programming to children in need. All of your donations will make a difference in the lives of children in need.  So not only will you have the opportunity to reconnect with your friends and peers, but you’ll have to opportunity to support a great cause. 

For those who plan to attend live, rest assured that the planning committee and our venue partner will ensure a safe and physically distanced event.

On a final note, this event couldn’t happen without the support of the amazing team of committee volunteers and our sponsors. Thank you for your hard work and support! 

We look  forward to welcoming you back to in person events, at the Festival for Reconnection!
