Jeff Henry (Project Designer/Manager) gave one of the most touching speeches of the night, talking about his love for floating in a river and how Schlitterbahn was conceived and designed. You could tell that this awesome water park was a project that was near and dear to him.

Wing Chao (Executive Vice President: Master Planning: Architecture and Design) destroys the podium with fists of fury. Okay, not really. He accepted the award for Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge with what was perhaps the funniest speech of the evening. With references to Jackie Chan, hopes for discounts at The Gap, and thanking the animals, he got quite a few laughs.
