Debs bow at Peninsula Ball



Bookmark and Share
Twenty-eight young women made their debut before friends and family members at the 52nd Peninsula Ball, held June 9 at the Crowne Plaza Cabana Hotel in Palo Alto.

The debs wore traditional white gowns, long white gloves, and carried white floral bouquets. The hotel ballroom was transformed into a garden setting.

The debutantes are Avery Corley, Kaitlin Demma, Alexandra Douglass, Kieran Gallagher, Caroline Golding, Lindsay Hale, Catherine Hannay, Rachael Henry, Lindsay Johnson, Natalie Krikorian, Jane Lazar, Jacqueline Leylegian, Katharine Madeira, Marjory Marquardt, Abigail McCall, Ashley Morton, Colleen Nawn, Catherine Perez, Madeline Pierson, Kara Rosenberg, Elisabeth Rossi, Clare Rudolph, Charlotte Sewell, Erin Sheridan, Kennedy Shields, Shelby Soltau, Jacqueline Stoner, and Megan Yang.

Nancy Jones was chairman of the ball, with Maxine Bonnette as honorary chair. Chris Martin was the presentation director for the ball, which benefited the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Peninsula.

Two of the ball committee members had daughters making their debuts this year. Catherine Hannay is the daughter of Marsha Haynes Hannay, a Peninsula deb in the 1970s. Alexandra Douglass is the daughter of Julie Frances Douglass, who has been on the ball committee for two years.

The evening was concluded with dancing to Dick Bright and his Orchestra, along with the Club 90 Band.
