The Kansas City Ballet Guild – Spring Luncheon
The Kansas City Ballet Guild’s Spring Luncheon was held on May 9th at the Carriage Club. Pauline Henne and Felicia Bondi were the hosts. President Susan Meehan-Mizer honored Rene Horne, who is retiring after 12 years with the Ballet. Guests were dazzled by a performance by the Kansas City Ballet’s Youth Ballet and by Craig Sole’s stunning floral arrangements. The new board members were introduced. Susan passed the gavel to John Walker, the incoming president.
