AN EVENING OF STARS!

On Saturday, October 11th, Jacob's Chance sponsored our first River City Buddy Ball Homecoming Dance.  Our "Evening of Stars" were shining bright and it was wonderful seeing how much fun all of our stars had!  What a GREAT night we had!    Each of our kids received flowers when they came in and a crown or tiara because they all deserved to be the Kings and Queens of the evening!  It took A LOT of work to pull the dance off so first and foremost we have to start with a big thank you to everyone who made the night possible.   

A BIG thank you to the "dance committee" who created this great night for our kids.  Monique Olliver, Barb Batt, Jennifer McMillen, Sly Kraemer and Donna Hayes, thank you for creating a wonderful evening from start to finish for our kids.  

A huge thank you to the Glen Allen Community Center for donating the space, to JJ's Grille and Little Caesar's for donating food, TB's Karaoke and DJ for the great music, Lindsay Ryman for the incredible stars cupcakes, Ms. Margi for taking all of the pictures linked below, the team from VACO for helping to coordinate volunteers, hours of decorating, baking cupcakes and cookies, and being GREAT dance partners to a lot of our kids and Movement Mortgage for ALL that you do.   Thank you Casey for "The Twist" challenge - we will hold you to being at next year's dance, but hope you and your wife had a fabulous weekend :) 

We had a great night of wonderful food, desserts, cotton candy, popcorn, face painting music and dancing. The kids starting dancing the second the music started and they didn't stop until it was over. THIS is exactly what Jacob's Chance vision is all about - our kids coming together, feeling comfortable and being able to socialize and have FUN!

Thank you again to everyone who made the night possible, to all the parents for sharing your children with us and to ALL of our stars for sharing your smiles and inspiring us - you are why we do what we do and you make us all want to be better people!
