LOCK HAVEN -- If you're looking for a chance to put on your best glitz and glam all while benefiting a local non-profit, the Clinton County United Way and The Express community newspaper's 5th Annual Masquerade Benefit Ball is the place to be.
The event, which will be held from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 23, on the Sons and Daughters of Italy's heated outdoor patio, will offer food, dancing, games... all to benefit the United Way and its partner agencies.
The Masquerade will include food provided by the Beech Creek Hotel, music by Absolut Sound and a photobooth by Jackson Productions.
Tickets cost $40 for one or $70 for two and include food, a specialty drink, wine and beer. Patrons can also purchase a beverage from the Sons during the event.
Tickets may be purchased by visiting bit.ly/4jWvGpy.
Those attending are encouraged to put on your best outfit, and don't forget your mask!
The event will also feature a 50/50 raffle and basket raffle. Those in attendance will have the chance to nominate a friend or loved one for the benefit's Best Dressed contest, too.
This is the fifth year The Express and United Way have partnered to bring this unique October event.
Organizers Carleigh Johnson, United Way director; and Megan Muthler, general manager for The Express, expressed their gratitude to all those who are sponsoring the event, donating their time and a raffle basket or gift card to ensure its success.
"We are incredibly excited to celebrate the fifth year of the Masquerade Ball in partnership with The Express! This event brings people together for a wonderful evening while helping us invest in the programs and services that strengthen our community," Johnson said. "We invite everyone to purchase their tickets, dress up, enjoy the festivities and be part of something bigger than themselves. When we come together, we can make a real difference in Clinton County."
Muthler echoed much of Johnson's comments.
"It's hard to believe this is our fifth year sponsoring this event with the Clinton County United Way. We are delighted in how much it has grown and are always so grateful to our amazing sponsors and donors who help to make it such a success! We can't wait to see how this year's ball goes! Get your tickets now, though, because they are selling out fast," she said.
