Joint Traditions ... New Horizons
"Joint Traditions ... New Horizons" is the theme for the Joint Base Charleston Military Inaugural Ball scheduled to be held Oct. 23 at the North Charleston Convention Center. In this venue, Team Charleston takes an appreciative look back at the beginnings of joint efforts of the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Air Force and looks forward to new partnerships.
The planning committee has embraced this focus and looks forward to representing some of the joint missions accomplished by these two services through historic displays and vintage uniforms. All Joint Base Charleston members are invited to take part in this event.
The evening begins with a cocktail hour at 6 p.m. and dinner is served at 7 p.m. After dinner entertainment will be a mixture of rhythm and blues, soul and rock as The Cool performs to guests' delight.
Event attire is mess dress/dinner dress for officers, mess dress/dinner dress or semi-formal for enlisted and black tie for civilians. No hats or cover. Please RSVP by Oct. 15 at 963-8013.
Event Support
Continued fundraising events are planned to help with expenses. They include a NASCAR race on Oct. 15 and 16 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The ball committee is seeking 30 volunteers (15 maximum per day) to help with this event.
Additionally, the committee is also looking for a talented vocalist to sing the national anthem the night of the ball. A second round of auditions will be held at the Charleston Club on Sept. 21 and 28 at 3:30 p.m.
