Remarks from the Reception

This was by far one of the best receptions ever in Springfield.
Thank you for having this wonderful event and for that lovely plate. 

Great job!!!

Senator John Millner

I thought it was wonderful and was honored to have been invited.  I especially liked the artist--I paint in watercolors so it was such a treat to watch her.  It was really nice event and I will be looking forward to next year!

I enjoyed the reception very much. I particularly enjoyed the art demonstration and the Turkish coffee house. More activities of this type always make a reception more engaging and interesting.
