Military Appreciation Ball
Once again, this was a very successful event held Oct. 25, 2008. The net proceeds are being donated to 3 local Military Family Support Units. I would like to thank all of our corporate sponsors, those who donated to the silent auction, and all of the volunteers who put in many hours to make this event a success. Thanks to everyone who attended the Ball and all of the vendors who were generous with “in kind” donations.
