YAP's big formal event that we do each year is the Sterling Society Mardi Gras Ball. We're very friendly with and support the group and their charity and enjoy their annual ball each year.
Everyone can attend and the price is $40 which is a great deal for a nice formal event at a hotel. It's black tie formal with a great band, fun casino and the usual fun stuff at a formal event.
To get tickets, you can ask a Sterling Society member or purchase them on their website and pick them up at will call (a table by the entrance) when you arrive. When you purchase online, please add "YAP CLUB" to their comments box. This way we may be able to get a private table or two reserved for just our group.
Also, it is recommended to get a room. If you wish to share with someone, you can post in the comments and see who all is getting one. The Sterling Society has secured a limited number of rooms at the Westin Galleria Hotel for the incredible rate of $99.00 for the evening of February 11th!! Please call the Westin Galleria hotel 972-934-9494 and request the "Sterling Society Group Rate" when reserving your room. You can also book online at the Westin website below:
