Attendees had the option of either bringing a food item to the potluck table or paying a bit more for the price of admission. This arrangement turned out very well as there was more sumptuous food to enjoy than anyone would have thought possible.</p>

<p>Award recipients included <strong>Tom Yates</strong> (President’s Award); <strong>Mark Clark</strong> (John Willig Award); and <strong>John Fegan Maurice Lapierre Len Latham Tom McMahon Ernie Raskauskas</strong> and <strong>the Shipps family</strong> (Community Service Awards).<strong> Tom Little</strong> Pastoral Associate to Bishop Rozanski from the Office of the Seton Vicar Archdiocese of Baltimore received the Veronica & Gerald Colfer Award given to individuals who have contributed significantly to the broader LGBT community.</p>
