Centennial Celebration Dinner
On Monday, February 25, the Centennial
Celebration was held at the Hyatt in Salt Lake City. We
filled our quota for the dinner—130 members and guests
showed up. The dinner was fantastic. Doug Silver did a
great job as Master of Ceremonies. We all enjoyed his
pithy comments about selected individuals—his trademark.
Two highlights of the evening: |
|
The
showing of the video
created by Stan Dempsey and Paul Jones was shown
and was very well received. They worked on the video
for months and produced a product that will be enjoyed
for years. It is a testament to MMSA accomplishments in
its first century. The theme of the celebration was “A
time to reflect and a vision for the future.”

Alan Burton retired as Executive Director of MMSA
and was given recognition for his excellent work for the
past 10 years. He was given a plaque and a Prazen
statue and a wonderful tribute by Bob Washnock,
President. Alan was surprised, but still gave a very
articulate appreciation for all the support given to him
over the years.

Everyone who came to the dinner
received a copy of the history book, a wine glass with
the MMSA logo, and the specially minted Silver and Gold
Centennial medallion. These items are available for
purchase for anyone who wants more and for those who
could not make it to the dinner. See page 4 of this
newsletter for details. The history book is free.
After dinner dancing kept some
people around. We had plenty of compliments on the
evening’s festivities. The feeling was one of excitement
and a positive future for MMSA. |
