The 18th Annual Lemon Ball

The Lemon Ball is returning to the Springfield Country Club in 2024! During the 18th Annual Lemon Ball, guests can expect the same elegance and charm as years past, all while making a huge impact for childhood cancer.

Adorned in yellow ties and gowns, guests kick off their evening with a special cocktail reception featuring auction items and experiences available for bid. Then, waiting for them in the Grand Ballroom, is a delicious meal, stories and interviews from childhood cancer heroes and families, and an exhilarating live auction. The evening will conclude with dancing accompanied by a live band.

The Alex Scott Crystal Cup Awards will also be presented to an individual and a group for their commitment to continuing Alex’s mission to fight childhood cancer, one cup at a time.
For more information, contact Terri Gamble at [email protected].
