Dear Friends,
I hope this message finds you all well! I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support of Mayor Alton and his fundraisers, especially the Mayor’s Ball, since he took office. Your enthusiasm and commitment mean the world to us!
Many of you have been asking about the Mayor’s Ball this year, and I’m thrilled to share some important information with you. Since this year is an inaugural year—celebrating the Mayor’s reelection—we won’t be hosting a ball in 2025. Just as a reminder, when the Mayor was first elected in 2021, the first Mayor’s Ball didn’t take place until 2022. So, as we embrace this special year, we’ll be skipping the ball and resuming our beloved event in 2026!
But don’t worry! We’re incredibly excited about the interest and enthusiasm surrounding the Mayor’s Ball, and we want to encourage you all to mark your calendars for October 3, 2026! Get ready to grab your boots, put on your bling, and join us for an absolute hoedown that promises to be a fantastic celebration!
Thank you once again for your support. We can’t wait to celebrate together in 2026!
Sincerely,
Sheila Goins
Mayor’s Ball Event Chairperson
