TV veteran and Emmy winner Harry Martin steps up as master of ceremonies. Music flows from the Richard Baratta Quartet, with guest artist Vyacheslav Gryaznov at the piano.
Seven local stars shine bright with recognition that night. The Community Service Award finds its home with Franci Steinberg. Two families, the Jiangs (David and Kayla) and Wilkens (John and Gracen), earn Philanthropic Family honors. Gilly Garrett, P.O. Matt Stanislao, and Courtnay Johnson Suffern stand tall as Community Action Heroes.
