ACAP BLACK & WHITE BALL 2011, COCKTAILS & DINNER & DANCE
Saturday, October 22, 8 pm, at the Residence of the U.S. Ambassador in Lima-Peru
We have the honor to announce the ACAP Annual Black & White Ball 2011, a great fundraiser event organized by the American Canadian Association of Peru (ACAP).
U.S. Ambassador Rose Likins has graciously offered the use of her residence for this event and we have contracted the Swissôtel to cater a SPECIAL DINNER.
There will be delectable APPETIZERS, DRINKS, and a GREAT-SOUNDING BAND that would make you DANCE all throughout the night. This evening also is known for its elegant dresses, glamour, and old fashioned fun, so, please join us, DRESSING-UP IN BLACK&WHITE (Optional), and wearing your dancing shoes as there will be GOOD MUSIC and plenty of dancing!
All through the evening you’ll have the opportunity to bid on wonderful SILENT AUCTION ITEMS that will be awarded throughout the evening, and you might even win two round trip airline tickets, just one of many great prizes. The fundraiser is for “La Alegría en el Señor” which is a school in Lima specialized in physically handicapped children, from the poorest areas of Lima.
