About this Event
This event will showcase projects our membership and partners are delivering for the various communities we serve. In addition to showcasing these projects, we will be presenting awards for the best submissions in five distinct categories: Collaboration | Innovation | Complexity | Environmental Stewardship | People's Choice.
People's Choice is back by popular demand! Project posters will be available for viewing and judging by all event attendees. Judging will be open during the social hour leading up to dinner. Votes will be counted during dinner and the award will be issued alongside the other categories later in the evening.
