Sertoma recently hosted an unforgettable evening with University of Tennessee head baseball coach Tony Vitello and comedian Josh Mancuso. Guests of the event enjoyed a lively and one-of-a-kind improv show by these two local legends. Prior to the big show, guests had the opportunity to network, mixing and mingling in the JVT Headquarters Auditorium. Cocktails were served alongside an amazing spread of heavy hors d’oeuvres prepared by local business, Holly’s Catering. At this year’s event, Bill Pittman was also recognized as the 2025 Lifetime of Love Award Recipient. Bill has supported Sertoma for decades and was noted for his incredible generosity with his time and resources. The 2025 Friendship Night was one to remember!
