Every first Wednesday in December, Metropolian Senior Network holds the MSN~Awards Breakfast in Portland, Oregon. The breakfast is both a holiday celebration and a recognition banquet. MSN corporate sponsors, regular attendees, and special awards recipients are honored with great food, beautiful music, certificates, trophies, and a motivational keynote speaker to end the year with a life affirming message.

Metropolitan Senior Network Awards were created to specifically recognize the practice of ethics and excellence in Healthcare Marketing. This banquet is a time of reflection, recognition, and celebration for the year just passed, the holiday approaching, and the New Year to come for all participants of Metropolitan Senior Network.
