What an Incredible Evening!
The 108th Annual MIRA Gala brought together more than 500 industry leaders, members, and partners for a memorable night of networking and celebration at Shenandoah Country Club. The event highlighted the strong sense of community that continues to drive our industry forward.
Guests enjoyed a lively atmosphere featuring casino-style gaming, a diverse showcase of vendors, exceptional dining, an exciting raffle with outstanding prizes, and a spirited live auction. Throughout the evening, attendees had the opportunity to connect, build relationships, and enjoy time with colleagues and friends.
