HANCEVILLE – Tickets are on sale now for this year’s Little Black Dress Charity Bash, the annual Wallace State event benefiting the WSCC Alumni Association’s Outstanding Women Scholarship. The bash will take place on Saturday, Feb. 27 at the Cullman Civic Center, with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Dinner will be catered by Designs by Grace and The Flashbacks will provide entertainment.
In addition to the new location, this year, instead of the silent auction, door prizes will be awarded and guests will have the opportunity to shop from local vendors.
“We are excited about the move to the Cullman Civic Center,” said WSCC Alumni and Special Projects Coordinator LaDonna Allen. “The new venue provides more room for everyone to spread out and enjoy visiting with each other. It also allows us the opportunity to offer new experiences for our guests, including the new shopping area featuring wonderful items from local businesses.
“We’re looking forward to the event and hope we will have many returning guests and vendors, as well as new guests who want to have a girls’ night out with their friends and new sponsors who want to reach our audience,” she added.
As always, there will be local ‘celebrity’ waiters, men from the community who accept tips for their excellent table-side service. All tips and proceeds from ticket sales and vendor fees will go to the Outstanding Women Scholarship fund. Each year through this fund, the Alumni Association provides financial assistance to deserving applicants so that they may meet their educational goals. In the past, the scholarships have helped women pay for tuition, books or exam fees in order to receive certification required to obtain employment.
Ticket options for the Little Black Dress Charity Bash are $65 for a single ticket, $520 for a table of eight and $650 for a table of 10. Admission includes a catered four-course meal, which features a dessert bar. A coffee bar will be offered to top off the meal. Each guest will receive a gift bag containing coupons provided by sponsors.
