NYSDA Throws a Party

The important business of the House completed, NYSDA was in the mood to celebrate. So, it threw itself a party May 31 to mark the successful end of the annual gathering of leaders and members, honor the accomplishments of its currently serving president, Dr. Prabha Krishnan, and pass the torch to her successor, Dr. Maurice Edwards, who took on the mantle of president for 2025-2026.

The President’s Dinner Gala, staged at the Long Island Marriott, was replete with flowers, food, pole dancers and an awe-inducing light show. It featured serious moments as well, as tribute was paid to Dr. Krishnan and the officers who served alongside her and service awards were presented. But, mostly, everyone was there to share the festive hours with family and friends, enjoy the music and dance.

A gallery of photos of celebrants is presented here.
