Following a short walk to the world-famous Espee, GAWDA’s SMC kicked off in style. With Texas BBQ, amazing music and dancing, karaoke, and drinks delivered right to people’s hands via donkey, the President’s Welcome Reception had something for everyone. And despite his shy and reserved nature, GAWDA President Gary Halter, clad in knickers and a school jacket like Angus Young, got up on stage with the band to lead the assembled crowd in a rousing rendition of Wanted Dead or Alive. It was pure GAWDA and the picture perfect kick off to this year’s SMC.
Note: the President’s Welcome Reception Photo Gallery had to be separated into two separate galleries, more photos from the party can be viewed here.
