Our Centennial Gala event was a hit with over 800 attendees at the Meydenbauer Center last Thursday night. Hundreds of members, certain elected officials and association staff were in attendance for the celebration. Attendees enjoyed various presentations and awards for fellow friends and members. As the event came to an end and the celebratory balloons and confetti rained down on the crowd, a feeling of excitement remained for our next 100 years in King and Snohomish Counties.
