Saturday, October 17th marked the 7th Annual Awards Banquet for the VUL. It’s was an evening full of laughter and recognition as we assembled the VUL’s largest contributors – board, staff, co-ordinators, organizers, volunteers, partners, top spirited players, and hall of famers.

The evening began with drinks and appetizers. Upon taking their seats before dinner, guests were welcomed with a slideshow titled ‘The Past Year in Photos’.  After dinner, the awards and hall of fame inductions began. Here are this years' award recipients and hall of fame inductees!
