This is where you will find official details and updates for our historic 30 Under 40 Top Black and Latino Leaders of South Jersey 5-Year Gala, which will be held Thursday, July 30, 6-9 p.m. at Adelphia's Ballroom in Deptford. This will be an incredible gathering of the most talented young African American and Hispanic trailblazers ever in South Jersey. We are excited to host and honor you. We hope to bring together as many past awardees as possible. Some special guests have been invited and we will have more on that as soon as we receive official commitments.

Here is what you need to know right now:

*All past awardees will attend for free. With that said, we will need your commitment to attend by May 30 for planning purposes. Send your Yes I am Attending to No I cannot Attend ONLY to chughes@acjosephmedia.com. We will need your email to confirm your attendance. This is very important.

*All awardees will be granted a "plus one" for $125. We will need those commitments by May 30 as well. IMPORTANT NOTE: Because of space limitations, the payment will secure your "plus one" on a first-come basis and are NOT guaranteed until payment is in.

*If there are any remaining tickets left once we secure commitments of awardees and their "plus ones," those will opened to the public on June 1 for $150.

Payments can be made via Zelle and PayPal (clyde.hughes@yahoo.com), Venmo (@acjosephmedia) and CashApp ($frontrunnernewjersey). Checks can be made out to AC JosepH Media and mailed to P.O. Box 404, Millville, NJ, 08332.

 *We will be taking a "Class Picture" with each group of awardees. We will try to do some of these before the event gets started and some after. Please come back to find out where you land once we get this organized.

*We are currently gathering as many emails and physical addresses possible and identify those we do not have. DO NOT WAIT for a formal invitation from us. We know who you are (See the full list of past awardees below) and confirm if you can come. 

*Please contact me with any other questions at chughes@acjosephmedia.com or clyde.hughes@yahoo.com.
