The National Advertising Benevolent Society has awarded the event management business for its annual NABS Gala to MacLaren Momentum. The 18th annual fundraising event will be held on May 10, 2002 at the York Theatre. MacLaren Momentum was one of eight companies that competed for the business. Last year the event management assignment was handled by Reeltime Productions. MacLaren Momentum will co-ordinate the event theme, décor and entertainment as well as manage the staging, lighting, sound and technical requirements. NABS is a non-profit charity that assists people in the advertising industry and related businesses that need help due to illness, injury, unemployment, substance abuse or financial difficulties. Its annual gala is a formal event that features the "Not So Silent Auction," the NABS/Mulvihill Humanitarian Award and live entertainment.
