The Ledges Country Club provided scenic vistas for photographs of the 39 young women who will make their debut at the 2014 Symphony Ball on November 1.  The young women enjoyed their first week of the season with three activities: the Debutante Tea at The Ledges, a special Debutantes and Dads event, also at The Ledges, and the Service Project at Huntsville Hospital.  They continue the time-honored Huntsville tradition, which begins anew this summer.

The Symphony Ball, held since 1964, is an annual major fundraising event for Huntsville’s own professional orchestra.  It entails many hours of work by the event sponsor, the Huntsville Symphony Orchestra Guild.  Pam Gann is chairwoman of the 2014 Ball, and this year will be the 51st Ball.

The 2014 debutantes, having completed their freshman year at college, look forward to an exciting season of social activities with their families and friends, as well as participating in a very special service project.  The Symphony Ball season will culminate with their debuts at a gala event on November 1 in the Von Braun Center North Hall.
