34rd Annual Junior High Afro Ball – An Evening of
Elegance
Over 800 seventh and
eighth grade area students turned out on Saturday, May 20,
for the 34rd annual Junior High Afro Ball at the
SeaGate Center. The annual event is hosted by the Grace
Community Center.
The Afro Ball brought
together students from 69 schools around the greater Toledo
area and 52 of the students were honored as VIP Guests
during the evening.
The theme of this year’s
Afro Bal was: “The future belongs to those who prepare.”
The Ball was started 34
years ago by Betty Amison, the original executive director
of the Grace Community Center. Elaine Page is the current
executive director. The planning committee consisted of
Page, Mark Robinson, David Jones and Kristen Edwards.
