Philadelphia, PA – Dad Vail Regatta Organizing Committee (DVROC) Board Member Desron Dorsett was recently recognized by the Philadelphia Business Journal as one of their 2020 Minority Business Leaders.

“I’m honored, but more so humbled to be recognized as a 2020 Philadelphia Business Journal Minority Business Leader,” said Dorsett. “As I strive to create a legacy for the people that follow me, the City of Philadelphia has offered tremendous opportunity for me to lead by making an impact within the community.”
Dad Vail Regatta Organizing Committee President Jim Hanna said, “On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Dad Vail Regatta Organizing Committee, I commend Desron Dorsett for the distinguished work he has performed culminating in being named a 2020 Minority Business Leader recognition which Desron, in his service to the Dad Vail Regatta, has unequivocally earned and highly deserves.”
