A Wonderful Evening at the 2017 Gala on the Bridge

Picture

The 2017 Noble Energy Gala on the Bridge presented by MillerCoors and Revesco Properties was a major success! The event has been sold out since April, and over 350 people joined us on the 19th St. Bridge on Thursday, September 14th.

Guests were able to mingle, sip on a beverage, and snack on passed appetizers while enjoying one of the most unique outdoor venues in Denver. After a delicious dinner, the evening culminated with the awarding of the 2017 Hero of the River to Jon Kahn! Jon is the owner of Confluence Kayaks, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year! From the onset of opening his business, Jon has volunteered countless hours of his and that of his staff, along with the resources of his business, for numerous TGF events and initiatives.

Thank you to Event Co-Chairs: Ellen Wilensky & Laurie Helmick, and the entire Gala Committee for putting together such a successful event.

Thank you to all of our sponsors for being part of this event! This event would also not be possible without HobNob Events!

More photos from the event coming soon!
