NEWH SAE Reception

The DC Chapter of NEWH raises money all year long to fund scholarships for young aspiring members of the hospitality industry. This year they gave out 5 scholarships to 5 very deserving students. The event was held at Garrett Park in Maryland, and it was a lovely evening. Above, the grounds at Garrett Park and the lovely decor done by Uptown Catering.
