Georgetown Biz: Awards, Elections and Party at Dumbarton House


























The Georgetown Business Association celebrated the end of 2009 and Christmas during its annual meeting at Dumbarton House on Que Street, Dec. 16, with awards and elections of a new president and officers.

The group's 2010 president is Joe Giannino, general manager of The Latham Hotel at 30th and M Streets, N.W. Georgetown Cupcake, with its new flagship store freshly opened, was named "business of the year." [Note: See earlier post.]

The Art Schultz Communitarian Award went to Gunther Stern of the Georgetown Ministry Center. The Joe Pozell Public Safety Award went to Full Stride Officers of the Second District of the Metropolitan Police Department, Officers Kathryn Fitzgerald, Doug Mason and Tanisha Thomas.

The festive business members enjoyed food from Clyde's Restaurant Group and music by the Radio King Orchestra.
