This exciting affair will be held on Thursday, September 19th, at the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center.  Guests will experience an intimate atmosphere where men and women can sip on libations from the period, dress in their 20’s best, and mingle in a cocktail party styled setting. Mission moments centered on our patients and survivors will be highlighted throughout the evening.
