Tables sold out in early August for the Sept. 14 event at The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, Colo.

The event will feature a reception, dinner, awards presentations and remarks by former Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) Commander Gen. Kevin P. Chilton, USAF, Ret., who will be introduced by current AFSPC Commander Gen. William L. Shelton, USAF. Space Foundation Chief Executive Officer Elliot Pulham will serve as master of ceremonies.

Three major awards, all of which have historically been presented during other local events, will be presented during the gathering:

The National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) Rocky Mountain Chapter's General James V. Hartinger Award
Air Force Association (AFA) Lance P. Sijan Chapter's General Jerome F. O'Malley Distinguished Space Leadership Award
Winners of the Air Force Space and Missile Pioneers Award

Blue Steel, the United States Air Force Academy band, will provide entertainment. The reception begins at 6:00 p.m. and dinner is at 7:00 p.m.
