Sweetheart's Ball & Black Tie Cakewalk

Held each year in February

6:00 pm Cocktails and Hors d'oeuvres
7:00 pm Dinner
8:00 pm Cakewalk & Dancing to live music

Our 6th Annual Sweethearts Ball and Cakewalk was held on February 13, 2010 at the Harman Center. Everyone came to have a good time dressed in sparkles and elegance. The food, beer and wines were wonderful. The band was the best ever to dance to and the dance floor was filled at all times. We took brief rests from the dancing to walk the “cake walks”. Great prizes were donated by local businesses, our Board members and friends. Many of those who attended won and took home great gifts. It was a fun time for friends to get together to celebrate Valentines Day. We had a great time.   

The 2008 Sweethearts Ball raised $7,500.
