Traditions Editor's note
This week the Terpsichorean Club of Raleigh issued invitations to the 90th annual North Carolina Debutante Ball. Selection of the debutantes is completed by more than 200 nominators from across the state with final selections made by Terpsichorean Club members. Invitations are extended to the debutantes in recognition of the contributions their families have made to North Carolina in the areas of economic, cultural, social and civic life. The 2016 ball will be held September 8-10 in Raleigh, with the formal presentation of the young ladies as the highlight of the weekend festivities.
