UVI’s traditional Holiday Galas are scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 7, at the Palms at Pelican Cove, on St. Croix and for Sunday, Dec. 15, at Frenchman’s Reef and Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort on St. Thomas. The Albert A. Sheen Campus theme is “UVI’s Holiday Cheers,” while the St. Thomas Campus theme is “Season of Elegance - Let’s Celebrate!” Both Holiday Galas will begin with cocktail receptions at 6 p.m. followed by the dinner program at 7 p.m. As in previous years, each employee is granted one complimentary ticket to attend the Holiday Gala. Guest tickets are available for purchase at a cost of $35.
“As we bring this outstanding year to an end, we have much to reflect upon and look forward to experiencing,” UVI President Dr. David Hall wrote in a message to employees. “The Galas are a rare moment for all of us to bathe in the beauty of the people who are the heart and soul of UVI. I look forward to your attendance and participation.” For additional information on St. Croix, contact Ann-Merrie Hendrickson at ext. 4010 or Evannie Jeremiah at ext. 4094.
