A deep bow and the barest hint at a curtsy – just as tradition dictates.

Let’s go to the dance floor…

This is fun……

PERFORMING THE “FRÜHLINGSSTIMMENWALZER” – THE VOICES OF SPRING

Following the debutantes’ performance, ball president and ambassador open the ball…

The debutante couples join in, and…

….following the invitation of the MC to: “Alles Walzer”, the dance floor is open to all.

At the end of the evening, the flower arrangements reflecting the Prater theme on each table were donated to the YWCA in downtown Montreal
