The spotlight was on excellence.

The SP Awards portion of the evening recognized the service professionals who consistently raise the standard — through preparation, poise, and unwavering professionalism.

Each award presented reflected not only individual achievement, but the collective strength of a community committed to growth.

We were especially proud to highlight members of the AHA Captains Development Program (CDP), whose dedication to leadership and continued training represents the future of hospitality.

When excellence is cultivated, it deserves to be celebrated.

Thanksgiving Fun Fact 🎈
Snoopy is the most featured character balloon in the entire history of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
He’s appeared in seven different versions since his debut in 1968 — from classic Snoopy, to astronaut Snoopy, to flying ace Snoopy soaring over Manhattan.

Across all decades, no other character has had more redesigns, appearances, or airtime than everyone’s favorite beagle. Snoopy is truly the unofficial mascot of the parade.

Wishing you a joyful, restful, and heart-filled Thanksgiving from the HMG+ Team.

HMG+ Vice President, Amanda Beni, had the honor of attending the 4th Annual Society for Hospitality and Foodservice (SHFM) Foundation Fundraising Gala at Inside Park.

The SHFM Foundation plays a vital role in supporting the next generation of hospitality and foodservice professionals by strengthening university student chapters, expanding military partnerships, and creating meaningful opportunities for emerging talent.

Funds raised at the gala directly support scholarships, programming, and increased access, helping future leaders build successful careers in our industry.

A sincere thank you to the exceptional culinary team, Michael Lomonaco, Brendan Dougherty, Henry Hamilton, Kory Dillon, Andy Leonard, and Garrick Hisamoto!
