Fifteen Debutantes presented by Las Patronas
March 28, 2012
Santa Paula News
Fifteen young women made their debut at the 55th annual Las Patronas Presentation Ball at the Ventura Beach Marriott. The debutantes celebrated with family and friends on March 10,2012 at the white tie fundraiser gala.
Proceeds from the debutante ball benefit the Assistance League philanthropies to enrich the lives of children in Ventura County: the Assistance League School for Child development in Oxnard, the Girls and Teen Club in Ventura, Operatiion School Bell and the B.U.F.F.Y. Bear Program. To date, the Las Patronas auxiliary has raised nearly $1.9 million for the philanthropies.
The girls were introduced last fall to the members of Las Patronas, an auxiliary of the Assistance League of Ventura County, at the Las Patronas Presentation Tea. The November tea is the first in a series of events culminating in the ball.
