Hall of Champions at Kyle Field
The Junior League of Bryan-College Station, Inc. (JLBCS) cordially invites everyone to a night of sizzling glitz and cool glamour as we roll out the red carpet at this year’s Charity Ball, “Fire and Ice” on Saturday, December 3, 2016 beginning at 6:30 p.m. This extravagant black tie affair will treat guests to a true red carpet entrance complete with fire dancers and paparazzi to capture the grandeur of the evening as guests enter the one and only Hall of Champions at Kyle Field for a night to remember. The evening will continue with a fine dining experience, including drinks served from a bar constructed completely of ice, and the opportunity for attendees to bid on an abundant display of incredible Silent Auction items. Guests will also have access to a stadium suite for the unique opportunity to capture a photo under the lights of Kyle Field. To top the night off, there will be amazing Live Auction packages available for bid which include the possibilities of a ski-lovers getaway to the exclusive Heaven ski resort in Tahoe, a guided exotic game hunt, a patio-lovers dream escape right in their own back yard and the ultimate party package that can’t be beat. To conclude, we will dance the evening away to the cool tunes of Texas Unlimited Band!
In addition to fundraising through ticket sells for the night of the event, members of our League are also selling raffle tickets for a chance to win one of two scorching hot jewelry pieces generously donated by David Gardner’s Jewelers. The two gorgeous pieces, covered in 7.98 carats of icy diamonds, have an estimated value of over $30,000 combined. The first raffle item is The David Gardner Pavé Circle which is designed in 18k yellow gold and platinum and covered in 3.45 carats of pavé diamonds. The pendant comes with a removable Texas A&M letter insert in 18ky, covered with diamonds and garnets. A versatile favorite, The Pavé Circle is the perfect casual, stylish statement piece. The second raffle item is a classic addition of any jewelry lover's wardrobe. The Platinum Diamond Line Bracelet has 4.53 carats of round brilliant cut diamonds and is the perfect day to night piece.
The price for your chance to take home one of these fabulous pieces is $50 per ticket or three (3) for $100. The winner will be drawn the night of Charity Ball, but will not be required to be present at the event to win. All proceeds benefit JLBCS and the programs we sponsor throughout the community. In fact, each ticket purchased equals the amount needed to provide one (1) year of school supplies for ten (10) local students through our signature project, Stuff the Bus. For questions or to purchase raffle tickets prior to the event, please email raffle@jlbcs.org or call our office at 979.774.4759.
