It is hard to believe the Charity Ball is over.
As a member of the Honors College Student Council, I have been anticipating and planning this event since the beginning of the school year. Now that it has come and gone, it is time to share some thoughts and pictures.
Thoughts!
- Venue: Amazing! I have been characterized as having "extravagant taste", so the Carnegie Hotel did not disappoint with all the gorgeous light fixtures and decorated ceilings/walls. I'd like to live there.
- Food: I had a delicious red velvet cupcake! That was the highlight, but there were also small snacks for everyone like mini quesadillas, chicken on a stick, vegetable eggrolls, and spinach dip.
- Friends: I suppose Kate was my date. We got ready and rode together, then joined our pals Steven, John, and Jonah at a table with some of their friends. They are lovely company and ~interesting~ dancers.
- Charity: We raised over $6,000 for the local charity, Small Miracles, an equestrian therapy facility that serves members of the community who have disabilities and even veterans struggling with post-traumatic stress. Overall, it was an extremely successful fundraising partnership with CIDA, and I know our hard work was worth it!

There isn't much to say except that the night was a success! Everyone seemed to have fun dancing and hanging out with friends! If you are reading this and you did not have a good time, please let me know so we can fix it for next year!
In other news: I am trying to find somewhere else to wear my dress.
Until Next Time,
Maddie
