GoldMonster Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Carolina Gold celebrated its 2009 banquet at a very nice banquet hall in Greensboro. Probably one of the biggest attended banquets ever, the corps was treated to a special treat of a cake with the corps logo on top! A surprise from the catering company!! Our support staff for the summer was first up with recognition certificates and a huge round of applause. The catered meal was INCREDIBLE! After some food and laughter, the corps announced the 2009 member awards. Award winners were as follows: Jody Strickland Heart of Gold - Paul Mellander Outstanding Brass Vet: Cory Bowman Outstanding Brass First Year Member: Ken Tealer Outstanding Percussion Vet: Brandon Douglass Outstanding Percussion First Year Member: Brandon Coffey Outstanding Guard Vet: Stephanie Carnahan Outstanding Guard First Year Member: Jordan Hurley Outstanding Marcher Vet: Tony Sutherland Outstanding Marcher First Year Member: Paul Ford And a surprise roast was given for departing Corps Director - Dana Harmon. Filled with great past stories and a slide show of the years she spent with the corps, it was a great way to say goodbye to 2009 and a person who made a difference with Carolina Gold.
