Our wonderful friends at Balentine Jewelers have outdone themselve this year. Every BTON Ball ticket is an entry form and one lucky person will go home from the Ball with a beautiful $475.00 designer necklace by Galatea made of 14kt white gold and features a diamond set in a pearl. This necklace is an absolutley beautiful door prize. To enter, simply complete the form on the back of your ticket and drop it in the hopper at the Ball.
Thank you Balentine Jewelers!
Ladies, have you ever wanted to be the Belle of the Ball? Yes! Well here’s your chance!
The 2012 Caddywompus Grand Prize is $2000.00. Tickets are $10.00 each. Tickets can be purchased from one of your friendly neighborhood Rotaract members (Kathryn Bluck, 'bluckk96@lsus.edu' is in charge) or from right here on the website, see below. Tickets purchased here will be picked up at Will Call the night of the Ball, filled out by the purchaser, and then dropped into the raffle drum.
This reverse raffle is not that complicated, here's how it works:
Admission to the Ball requires two things: (1) a ticket and (2) at least one pound (1 lb) of loose change (quarters, dimes, gold, etc.). Our goal is to have more pounds of change than there are attendess at the Ball. It seems in years past that we've ended up with far fewer pounds that people, so we know there's been lots of folks stiffing ole Change Monster.

What's the BTON Ball's Story?
In January 2008, the Rotaract club members, while volunteering to help serve dinner every other week at the Rescue Mission, became well aware of the great things the Mission does... as well as some of their great needs. It was obvious the giving dropped off dramatically right after Christmas. So, the group of students wanted to do something more, something bigger. They wanted to make a more significant impact. From that desire came The Ball.
