An exciting season is underway for the Debutantes of 2016.
On Thursday evening, May 19th at Huntsville Country Club, debutantes and their presenters attended a training seminar designed to enhance the beauty and pageantry of the formal presentation of the 2016 Symphony Ball, set for October 29, 2016.
Symphony Ball Chairman, Linda Akenhead, welcomed the debs and presenters. Announcement photographs of the debutantes were taken by Ball photographer, Mark Jaeger.
Debutante/Presenter Event Chairmen Pam Gann and Josie Craig organized the evening’s events.
Long-time advisor to the Symphony Ball, Randy Roper, and Debutante Liaison, Sarah Gessler, provided instruction to the debutantes and their presenters on formal presentation and the curtsy.
Dance instruction was provided to the debs and presenters for a choreographed waltz to be performed the night of the Symphony Ball. They will dance to the Tales from the Vienna Woods, by Johann Strauss II.
On the evening of the Ball, October 29, immediately after the presentation of the debutantes and waltz with their presenters, former debutantes of the Huntsville Symphony Ball over the past fifty two years will be invited to join the 2016 debutantes in a special dance.
The Symphony Ball, sponsored by the Huntsville Symphony Orchestra Guild since 1964, is an annual fundraiser benefitting the Huntsville Symphony Orchestra.
