72nd Annual Summer Convention Delivers Fire and Ice
“What a wonderful night!” said VAB
President-Elect Doug Davis, President/General
Manager of WAVY-TV in Richmond.“The ice and snow machine was a big hit!”
Ice and snow in the summer. . . in
Virginia Beach? The effects helped sell this
year’s “Fire and Ice” theme, which dazzled
approximately 250 guests at the VAB Awards
Reception and Banquet.
“Many broadcast employees from
around Virginia Beach who weren’t registered
for the Convention dropped by
Thursday and Friday to take advantage of
the informative sessions,” said Amy Shaw,
Director, Meeting and Convention Services
for VAB.
Amy was instrumental in organizing
the Convention Fire & Ice Reception. More than one guest
wondered aloud how she could possibly top
it next year.
“As a VAB member I just wanted to
thank you for the outstanding job you and
your team did on this year’s conference,”
said Bob Willoughby, Vice President/Market
Manager, WKHK/WKLR/WMXB/WDYL
in Richmond. “We are very lucky to have
such an outstanding staff represent our
membership. You all go the extra mile and
it shows!”
The VAB would like to thank all of the
attendees and board members whose participation
helped make this year’s Convention
such a resounding success.
