A Jewel of a Downtown is the theme for this year’s Mayor’s Charity Ball and, as a special feature for the Ball, Martin Binder Jewelers has designed and created a custom piece to be awarded to the winning ticket holder on the night of the Ball.
This “Jewel of a Necklace” is Sterling Silver with a Green and Gold Bi-color Quartz Center and brilliant cut Diamond accents on a 16" Omega. The necklace, designed by Jeanette Binder, has a value of $650.
Also to be given at the Ball, is a Framed Original Valparaiso Streetscape by Aran Kessler. This is a beautiful night scene of downtown Valparaiso which was used as the invitation to this year's Ball.
Tickets to enter the drawing are available to the general public prior to noon on Friday, September 18. You need not be present at the Ball to win. Only 1,000 tickets will be sold. The cost is $25 each or 5 tickets for $100 and are available for sale now. All proceeds of the Drawing sales will be given to the charities.
The necklace may be viewed and tickets may be purchased at Martin Binder Jewelers. Tickets may also be purchased from Lori Good at Valparaiso City Hall, or from Mayor’s Ball Committee Members Judy Back, Pat Blanco, Susan Brychell, Dorian Bush, Betsy Cuellar, Christian Hanna, Tracey Pappas, Leslie Plesac, and Nicole Williams.
Tickets to the Ball are also still available. Contact Lori Good at 548-4822.
