Mayor's Biennial Charity Ball Planned For This Year

MARLBOROUGH, MA—You look forward to it every year, and plans are well underway.

The Mayor’s biennial Charity Ball takes place on Saturday, May 5, at the Holiday Inn & Suites in Marlborough from 6:30 p.m. to midnight.

All proceeds from this event go towards the Mayor’s Charity Relief Fund, a fund that since 1960 has assisted local residents in need of a helping hand during times of emergency or duress. This fund may help a family who lost their possessions in a home fire or who are threatened with eviction, senior citizens whose fuel or light and power are to be terminated, or individuals financially struggling due to a serious illness, according to the announcement.

This year’s “Fiesta” themed event includes a silent auction, hors d’oeuvres from numerous local restaurants, desserts, coffee, music from a local, popular band, Supplemental Income, dancing and a cash bar. Instant red-carpet photographs will be available on site and can be uploaded to social media. Mayor Arthur Vigeant will be on hand to celebrate his fourth Ball as Mayor and will also recognize the recipient of this year’s Humanitarian Award.
