Many thanks to all our THA members who modeled and slayed the runway!
Among the highlights of the evening were the presentations of the Ben Rosenthal Award to Dorfman Pacific’s Arthur Gardner and the Retailer of the Year Award to the Panama Hat Company in St. Augustine, Florida. The 31-year-old family-run business, located in an 18th-century building, was founded by Ecuadorian immigrant Consuelo Lippi and is now co-owned by son Tony, both of whom were on hand and very grateful to receive the honor. Marveling on her long-time success, Conseulo remarked: “I knew exactly what I wanted to do when I started the business, I just didn’t know how to go about it.”
The Association also inducted its six new “Hall of Fame” members: John Wayne, Usher, Justin Timberlake, Kate Hudson, Christina Aguilera, and Hedy Lamarr.

Tha’ts going to make things a lot easier from here on out.
It was a hats-on night on April 14 when the members of the The Headwear Association gathered at The Boathouse in Central Park for their 1h annual dinner.
And thanks to the Headwear Association for all they do to help make a better world, including hat giveaways and public awareness campaigns about skin cancer, and numerous Headwear for the Homeless events.

But, what about this? suppose you typed a catchier title?
I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your website, however
what if you added a title to maybe get folk’s attention?
I mean 108th Annual Headwear Association Dinner – 111 Years of Promoting Hats and Headwear Awareness Worldwide is kinda boring.
You might look at Yahoo’s front page and note how they write
article titles to get viewers to open the links. You might add
a related video or a picture or two to grab readers interested about everything’ve written.
