For over fifty years, MODC has presented its prestigious Silver Gull Award to deserving recipients around the region who have made a difference in the way we do business at the Jersey Shore. Under the direction of committee chair, Senator Robert Singer, this preeminent affair, attended by over 300 business and community leaders, has become recognized as the pinnacle of awards, recognizing individual and corporate accomplishments in the area of economic development, community service, and tourism.
