This year's Godiva Annual Pizza Party was an online get together on Tuesday evening, December 8th. We reviewed the happenings of this year unlike any other, introduced our new club Vice President Kevin Rumsey, and passed off the baton from Ariana Bevilacqua to our new president Susie Castellanos Hansley in an epic fashion.
