With a large inventory of donated dresses, shoes, and dazzling jewelry, Belle of the Ball makes it easy for girls to find everything they need for a magical night.
There is still time to find what you need at Belle of the Ball! From 8 am until 12 pm Saturday in the Racine Room at St. Mary's Hospital, 3801 Spring Street, girls can "shop" for the perfect dress, shoes, and accessories to make a complete look for prom, one of the most important events in a high school student's life.

There is an hour - 11 am to 12 pm - for walk-ins, but reservations are required. Girls can still reserve a slot by sending an email to racineprom@hotmail.com.
