Oh What a Night!

Last night's gala was quite the event. It even got covered by AP. Why? Who was the famous Former President? Clinton . . . after spending the day in Montreal bashing Bush, he came to our gala to accept an award. And he took photos with some of our other awardees and I got to shake his hand! Pretty exciting, huh? I also got to meet the president of the NAACP and his wife.

The other highlight of the evening was that our other big awardee--a teacher--is stationed in Iraq and we managed to get a live satellite feed for him to give an acceptance speech. All in all, a very cool night!
