The Ceres Fire and Police Department will host the second Annual Black Tie Charity Ball on Friday, March 18 with proceeds going to the Ceres Fire and Police Explorer posts.

The event will feature a cocktail reception, sit-down dinner, and dessert auction. The committee has been asked again to have a silent auction that will enhance the evening's activities.

Following the dinner and the auction, there will be music for dancing and entertainment. A special addition this year will be a photo booth.

Come out and enjoy time with friends and other community members while supporting a very worthwhile cause.

Tickets are $50 per person and available at Ceres Fire Station #1, 2755 Third Street, or the Ceres Community Center, 2701 Fourth Street.
