The Ceremony
Each year a ceremony is held around the first week of December at Ponds Forge International Sports Centre. The event usually comprises a three course meal where several awards are presented between each course, culminating in the final award presented to the 'Outstanding Business of the Year'.
The 2010 ceremony was hosted by comedian and impressionist Jon Culshaw. The event was planned for 2 December, but unfortunately due to severe weather conditions, the awards were postponed until 13 January 2011.
The 2009 ceremony was hosted by Paul Ross on 3 December.
The 2008 ceremony was hosted by Jon Culshaw and held on 4 December 2008.

Famous quotes containing the word ceremony:
““Dirty fellow!” exclaimed the Captain, seizing both her wrists, “hark you, Mrs. Frog, you’d best hold your tongue; for I must make bold to tell you, if you don’t, that I shall make no ceremony of tripping you out of the window, and there you may lie in the mud till some of your Monseers come to help you out of it.””
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
“The geometry of landscape and situation seems to create its own systems of time, the sense of a dynamic element which is cinematising the events of the canvas, translating a posture or ceremony into dynamic terms. The greatest movie of the 20th century is the Mona Lisa, just as the greatest novel is Gray’s Anatomy.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
