The opening day ended with the 18th annual GALA Hall of Fame awards banquet. This year's honorees included Joe Arriola, the first Cuban-American and the second Floridian to receive the coveted Eagle Trophy. Just prior to the show, Arriola had announced the sale of his company, Avanti/Case-Hoyt, to St. Ives plc for a reported $42 million.
