Kind Comments from George Washington's Friends
Dear General Washington,
My husband and I attended our first ball this last Saturday night. You
make an excellent host and our only regret of the evening is that we were
not able to catch you to personally wish you a happy birthday! Please allow
me the liberty of doing so now in wishing you many happy returns!
As this was our first ball we were not quite sure how the evening would
progress, but let me say you exceeded all our expectations! The company was
delightful, the music enchanting, the dance master excellent in his field.
We left wishing that April 3rd, and there by the next ball, were much closer
then it is!
Thank you again for your time and providing such wonderful entertainment!
Yours & C,
J. Durda Mesa, Arizona

Dear President and Mrs. Washington,
Thank you for your gracious hospitality at the ball this Saturday. The opportunity to see many friends and dance as a lady among ladies and gentlemen was a most refreshing treat!
Your dedication to hosting these balls has been such a blessing to me. Once again, thank you for you commitment to establishing a "beacon" of culture and refinement in our rapidly "unrefining" world!
Gratefully,
Miss Jenna L. Chandler, Arizona

Hello Scott and
Lisa aka George & Martha,
It was a marvelous occasion. We did so enjoy the evening by meeting new
dancers and visiting with others we had met previously. The music was
outstanding as was the dancemaster. It was quite a feat to choreograph so
many. Thanks you for the extra speakers, the cool air and the additional
refreshment table. We hope to bring another new couple to the final ball of
the spring season.
We also appreciate your tireless efforts to provide a spectacular occasion
(in spite of your cold). Thanks, Chuck and Roonie Mesa,
Arizona

I just wanted to say, to anyone who reads this, thank you so much for
what you do! I had a fabulous time at my first ball last night! It's a great
thing you do.
Keep it up!!
Thanks,

Dear
Lord Scott,
I was so sad that we were too late to submit this for your website but, my
friends and I had such a great time at the Valentine's Ball and we just
wanted to share our experience. We had the most enjoyable time at the
Washington, Lincoln & Valentine's Ball! The ballroom was gorgeous and the
people were very sweet to us and our friends by introducing themselves and
talking awhile.We are looking forward to the upcoming Ball.
Best regards,
Tiffany B., Allison C., Kimberly Z., and Christina T. Scottsdale, Arizona
