To Filipino-Americans in the Charlotte, North Carolina area, please save this date November 16 on your calendar.
That’s because Nov. 16 is the date set for the annual Gala of the Filipino-American Community of the Carolinas Inc. (FACC) after last week’s meeting by the FACC 2019 board of directors headed by its new president Muffy P. Therrien.
“Due to some changes, there is also a change of date and venue,” Therrien said.
The 32nd Gala will he held at Hilton Charlotte University Place located at 8629 J. M Keynes Drive, Charlotte. The first Gala was held in 1988 at the Royce Hotel, said Dr. Nini RB Bautista de Garcia in the book “Footprints of the Past 30 years of FACC Galas.”
This year’s Gala would have special awards like Best National Costumes (male, female and couple).
A sterling lineup of performers are on hand to entertain the crowd. Tickets are sold at $65 which is non refundable but transferable and assignable to allow everyone to attend.
Everyone is encouraged to purchase tickets early to have tables near where the action is at the stage. For those with kids and who want to enjoy the night there is nanny service available for taking care of your kid/s.
Please contact officers and area representatives near you for tickets sales and reservations./Susan Palmes-Dennis
How does the nanny service works? Do we bring them to the hotel and they can stay there with activities while we are in the Gala? How much per child? Thank you.
