There
has always been a buzz surrounding the Fairfield County Annual
Charity Ball and this year is no exception. Celebrating its
tenth anniversary, the organisers have really pushed the boat
out. They have decided to run an auction as part of the
evening's entertainment to raise additional funds for the local
hospital.
Rumours have been circulating that a specially commissioned
sculpture by award-winning local artist Connie Banks will be up
for auction. With her growing reputation in the art world, the
sculpture could be worth a fortune in the future.
As
always, the Annual Charity Ball has brought together the great
and the good of affluent Fairfield County. Local business
people, politicians and well-heeled citizens secured their
tickets to this coveted event well in advance.
The
Ball is in full swing and Jack Jackson, the head of the Charity
Ball Committee is very pleased with the way things are going.
Everybody seems to be having a good time and the extravagant
decorations have gone down a storm.
The
auction will be starting in about half an hour. Jack can't wait, he managed to persuade TV celebrity
and antique specialist Victor Haimes
to act as auctioneer. The moment Victor steps out on stage will
be Jack's moment of glory – he will have organised the best
Charity Ball Fairfield County has ever seen.
Jack's
certainly right about one thing, it will be a night Fairfield
County will never forget, but for all the wrong reasons…..
