Jackie Blakey-Tate, Presentation Ball general chairman and president of the Alpha Alpha Omega Chapter said, “poise, grace, class and style are just a few words that describe our Pearls.” Blakey-Tate also complemented the “Miss Pearl Essence” participants in their beautiful pink dresses and the “Pearls in Waiting” that were gorgeous in green.
Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends and family came out on Dec. 5 to support the bi-annual Precious to Cultured Pearls Presentation Ball held at Temple Rodef Shalom. “The debutantes worked for months to prepare for this evening. The young ladies, ranging from grades 1 through 12, actively participated in sessions designed to develop their character and individual leadership styles as well as strengthen their academic skills, enhance their civic and community service and prepare them for a fulfilled and bright future,” said Bridgette N. Cofield, president, Ivy Charitable Endowment of Pittsburgh Inc.
