We are thrilled to announce that TeamBrent has been selected as one of the recipients for the 2012 Princess Ball, a series of formal-father daughter galas held to benefit local charities and strengthen the bond between girls and their fathers. The Princess Ball introduces local children’s charities to girls, develops an understanding in the girls that they can impact the world around them, donates proceeds to Children’s Charities, offers tickets to the entire community on a first come first served basis and welcomes fathers, grandfathers, and uncles of girls in grades 1-8. The mission of the Princess Ball is to celebrate the next generation of philanthropic girls as they dance the night away with the most important man in their life. This is the fifth time TeamBrent has been selected, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Registration opens December 1st – Please join us as we dance the night away!
