Partygoers enjoyed a signature cocktail, a wine, Bourbon, and purse pull, a live auction, and dancing. Jennifer and Rex Hudler were the honorary chairs, and Julie Cain and Shelly McVay served as the co-chairs. Toby Cook was the emcee. Proceeds support Inclusion Connections’ mission of serving young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
