We did a thing a couple of weeks ago! With the help of Nova Mutual Insurance and Black Creek Music, we transformed our front boardroom for the day to hand out the hardware from our Spirit of Norfolk Awards (Remember that?

Here's a sneak peek of our Exclusive One Day, "One on One", Pick Up Event set up - the Nova Mutual Power Path, and some stellar photo and up lighting by Black Creek Music!
