 OPERATION ALPHA
Thanks to our amazing sponsors & attendees – HVAF raised more than $131,000 at Operation Alpha 2021! That’s about $50,000 more than what
was raised last year!
Over the years, HVAF has raised thousands at each event – through ticket purchases, silent auction items, games, whisk(e)y pulls, cigar purchases, and more. At first, the event was held at Hotel Tango, but eventually we outgrew the space. 2019 and 2021’s events have taken place at The Biltwell Center (with 2020 being a virtual event).
The evening started with attendees enjoying Hotel Tango spirits, including a signature cocktail, & delicious food while playing games – including a whisk(e)y pull, cigar pull, and wine toss. A huge shoutout goes to freelance journalist Sarah Jones for being our virtual emcee. She went live on our Facebook page to show viewers everything that was happening, and interviewed attendees as well.
