2012 Fur Ball
First and foremost, we would like to personally that each and every individual who attended our Fur Ball 2011. We also want to extend our most sincere thanks to the many businesses and individuals who donated items and services to both our Silent and Live Auctions. Without you, the Fur Ball 2011 would not have been successful. Please take a moment to see the impressive list of donors from Fur Ball 2011 under Past Events and also make it a point to patronize these most generous businesses and individuals.
Fur Ball 2012 will be on March 31, 2012 at the Arts Ballroom, and the word is that it will outshine all previous Fur Balls. We are most pleased and honored to announce that Robert S. Beck, our Vice President of the Morris Board, has once again stepped up to the plate and will be chairing the Fur Ball 2012 Committee. This will be Rob's fourth time at bat in this position, so we are guaranteed to have a smashingly fun and successful night.
For those of you interested, we are currently seeking energetic and talented volunteers to assist us in undertaking this huge endeavor.
