St. Mary’s Medical Center Butterfly Ball
Scheduled for March 6

Blue Springs, Mo. — The Auxiliary and Foundation of St. Mary’s Medical Center will enter a New York state of mind on Saturday, March 6, for the annual Butterfly Ball at the Adams Pointe Conference Center in Blue Springs. This year’s theme, Butterflies on Broadway, will offer a piano bar and performance of Broadway show tunes. The martini reception and piano bar “overture” will begin at 6 p.m. The “first act” of dinner begins at 7 p.m. followed by a live auction and raffle “intermission” and a “second act” of dancing.

Celebrating its 23rd year, the St. Mary’s Butterfly Ball will be held at the Adams Pointe Conference Center, 1400 NE Coronado Drive in Blue Springs. Proceeds benefit St. Mary’s surgery expansion campaign, A Calling to Care. Chairs for this year’s Butterfly Ball are Roberta and Charles Brecheisen. Community chairs are Mayor Carson and Eloise Ross and physician chairs are Dr. Robert and Beth Paul.

Roberta Brecheisen has dedicated her volunteer time as a member of the St. Mary’s Auxiliary for the past three years and this year, she and her husband Charles are serving as co-chairs of the event. “A new feature of this year’s event will be a raffle and online auction in lieu of the silent auction. Also, cocktail attire is welcome rather than just formal wear,” shares Roberta. Anyone interested in donating items to the online auction are invited to call Suzanne Dell-St. Clair in the St. Mary’s Foundation at 816-655-5366. Auction items can be viewed online at http://auctions.readysetauction.com/stmarysmedicalcenter. Bidding begins February 5 and ends March 5.
