2026 Sunday Blue Crescendo
Delegate Cliff Hayes Presents: Sunday Blue Crescendo
The night you've been waiting for is back! Join Delegate Cliff Hayes for an unforgettable evening of smooth jazz, heartfelt celebration, and live music by the incomparable Better By Tuesday Band.
Why We Honor
It's the people who make our communities great. At the Blue Crescendo, we celebrate the quiet difference makers, the conscience keepers, and bridge builders who work with care, integrity, and dedication to connect us all. Through their efforts, they build the unseen yet essential foundation that lifts our collective quality of life.
Each year, we pause to say "thank you" to a few extraordinary individuals and organizations. We honor them not just for what they do, but for who they are: champions of connection and living proof that when we work together, we rise together.
The Celebration
This year's honorees will receive the 4Cs Community Awards, given to leaders who are consistent, committed, community-focused, and connected in their service. So bring your dancing shoes and come ready to celebrate the people whose work strengthens our community!
