Amid Monday’s blustery, snowy weather and the looming threat of inches of accumulation, over 350 Team Members and their guests still managed to make it to the 2019 TCD Banquet at The Palace in Somerset, NJ. The Winter Wonderland theme seemed to be a curse despite the beautiful decorations and centerpieces. The evening was full of delicious hors d’oeuvres, exciting videos, and lots of recognition for those who knocked it out of the park this past year. In a special closing to the evening, unlike any we’ve done before and despite the flurries that continued to fall, fireworks lit up the night sky at The Palace.
