2009 ANNUAL YEAR END BANQUET IN REVIEW

Gallery: 09 Year End Banquet

If you missed the Mustangs Northwest Annual Banquet, then you really missed out! The event was held on January 9th at the Museum of History & Industry (MOHAI) in the McCurdy gallery..

This gallery featured a selection of photographs celebrating the centennial of the Alaska-Yukon Pacific Exposition, and not only were guests free to enjoy what this gallery had to offer, but they were also able to explore two other galleries featuring exhibits on Essential Seattle , The Great Seattle Fire, Salmon Stakes and the Boeing Johnson Gallery . Guests were also able to view Seattle nostalgic items like the pink Lincoln “Toe Truck”, costumes from the local children’s show “Wunda Wunda”, beloved “Bobo” the gorilla, and the Slo-Motion hydroplane.

The banquet was catered by Pyramid catering, and the evening began as guests were treated to various hors d’oeuvres passed on trays, followed by a magnificent buffet featuring seafood, beef, chicken, pasta and vegetarian items. The meal was followed by Tully’s coffee and a dessert buffet and beverage service.

2009 Judge Committee

Keeping with tradition, 2009 Mustangs Northwest Vice President, Mike Zimmer (and his lovely lady, Connie) , planned the event, and Lance Lambert loaned his incredible auctioneering skills to round out the festivities with a live auction.

Thanks to the kindness and generosity of Mustangs Northwest Members, over $2000 was raised to benefit the various charitable organizations that we support throughout the year, including “Revved Up For Kids” - Founded by the Edelbrock Corporation.

Thanks to all who attended and contributed to a truly enjoyable and successful event. And a very special thanks to Mike Zimmer and Connie for all of their hard work and effort!
