This is an awesome opportunity for Century…to have a “formal” Ball and have the priviledge of Will-Inspire to be the performing band! They are an awesome group. They have played at the Teaspoon festival a couple of times, played for Relay-for-Life previously also.
The money raised goes for a good cause, plus you will have great entertainment and good food. What more could you ask for?
@DG What made you automatically think there would be a problem?

Sure would love for you to join us so you can see for yourself that responsible adults can have “good clean fun” in an alcohol-free environment (WITH security being arranged for already, by the way). Your $20 for a ticket will support the efforts of many of your fellow citizens who want to help the American Cancer Society find cures, provide services for patients and families,and educate the public about cancer prevention. Thanks for your concern and support!
Can’t wait to see how this turns out. Hopefully the sheriffs department is getting ready!!
