Rob Spade
Our season opening dinner dance was “Come to the Masquerade Ball.” Thanks to everyone that participated; you made it a fun way to kick start the dance season. The three finalists for the category best couple masquerade mask combo were Bob and Jacquelyn Peterson; Ray and Betty Reagan; and Rich Pavlak and Betty Lauer. The winning couple for the best masquerade mask combo selected by the volunteer judges was Bob and Jacquelyn Peterson. And as you can see in the photo the masks are awesome! A complete photo album is available on our website.
The invitations will be mailed soon for the Sonoran Serenade Black and White Ball. Doors open in the Oakwood Ballroom on January 9 at 6:00 p.m. with cocktails.
