UMACA REUNION Banquet at Asian Palace - July 5th

Our banquet venue for the UMACA Reunion.
The early arrivals

Old friends catching up during the social hour.


We had to make due with our multimedia setup (many thanks to Jerold and his family)!

Once we got my laptop plugged in and Jerold's sound system setup we were in business!

Part of our setup was using a dim sum cart and some plastic crates.
We got our reunion logo projected onto the wall.











Co-founder Raymond sharing the history of UMACA.
Wayne had drawing thru out the evening with prizes handed out.

Wayne enlisted Sonya (and Lena) to pull and call out raffle numbers.
It's my turn to share as the other co-founder of UMACA in appreciation of folks coming out for the reunion.

I swear I had my eyes open when I talking!
