![]() The ballroom of the Hotel RL in Olympia was filled with community leaders and members of the DRC family who came together on Sunday, April 14th to celebrate and support the work of the Dispute Resolution Center. This year's theme, "Strengthening Connections", highlighted the many personal connections and community partnerships that help advance the DRC's vision - a South Sound community that has and uses healthy and respectful conflict resolution skills. Thank You to all of our table hosts, volunteers, business partners, vendors and, especially, our generous donors, who made this event a success. Our guests at the 2019 edition of The Toast: - Enjoyed savory hors d'oeuvres from the Hotel RL chefs, sampled sweet treats from local chocolatiers and bakeries, and sampled libations from local wine-makers, cider-makers and distillers; -Joined us in honoring Rev. Carol McKinley, recipient of this year's Evan Ferber Peacemaker Leadership Award; - Heard from DRC Executive Director Jody Suhrbier and our keynote speaker, Olympia High School teacher Jason "Blue" Peetz, addressing the theme of "strengthening connections"; - Gave generously to support the DRC's efforts to build a more civil and peaceful community; - and enjoyed re-connecting with long-time DRC supporters, as well as introducing first-time guests to the work of the DRC.
