Though the weather definitely fought us, the Phoenixville Area Chamber of Commerce Charity Ball was a great success.  Our guests braved the wind, rain, and yes, some even overcame power outages to attend this wonderful event.  As I posted before, this year the beneficiary chosen was the Good Samaritan Shelter of Phoenixville.  Nate Hoffer, Director of Good Samaritan, addressed the crowd and thanked everybody there for contributing, and then introduced a resident of the shelter, who bravely told his story of how he fell on hard times and Good Samaritan was there to empower him to get back on track.  It was moving, to say the least. 

From there, the night was full of bidding on the live and silent auction items – people took home some great things (like weekend stays at the Loews in Philly, box seat tickets to an Eagles Game, and memberships to RiverCrest Country Club, who hosted the ball) and dancing to the tunes provided by the #1 Philly Party Band – Bigg Romeo!!  It was a great time.

I want to again thank the Chamber for hiring us to help coordinate this fantastic event, RiverCrest Country Club for being so accommodating to our scheduling needs, all of the businesses who donated items for the auction, and all of our guests who braved the elements to be a part of this special night.  We hope to see you all again next year!!!

I will post photos soon!!
