Geelong stars set to shine

19 April 2010

The debutante dreams of a group of people with disabilities will come true when the Zonta Club of Geelong host a Presentation Ball on May 21.

Zonta is partnering with Karingal for the event.

Local businesses have the opportunity to purchase tickets to attend and be part of an evening that will no doubt be one to remember.

Tickets purchased help minimise costs for ball participants.

The ball will see about 15 couples presented to Geelong’s Mayor at the Capri Reception Centre in North Geelong.

According to Karingal General Manager Robyn Bradshaw, this event has quickly become the talking point throughout the organisation.

“Our participants are really enjoying learning the dances, and are looking forward to getting dressed up and being presented to a room full of their friends and family, as well as members of the Geelong community,” she said.

“We’re very excited about making this event a night to remember for everyone.”

It promises to be one of fantastic entertainment, with band Cool Change and local entertainer Tim McCallum.

Zonta Club of Geelong President Jane Adornetto said the evening, which will have a Starry Starry Night theme, was one the group was proud to be a part of.

“The mission of Zonta International is to advance the status of women worldwide through service and advocacy, and we are proud to be hosting this fantastic event”,

Corporate tickets cost $70 and are available from Leigh on 5241 7091 or Melissa mfarrell@karingal.org.au
