Members of the Ballerina Club gathered at the Country Club of Birmingham on Valentine’s Day for the group’s annual ball.

The 68th Ballerina Club Ball featured dinner and dancing in the East Room to the music of the Edd Jones Orchestra on Feb. 14.
Sharron Thomas was the ball chairman. Committee members were Patsy Straka, Tricia Mitchell and Drucilla Rochester.
The ball’s theme combined Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras. The color scheme of red, black, gold, purple and silver was carried out in the decorations, which included columns, arches, plumes and feathers. Black underlay cloths on the tables were topped with red satin rounds. A twirling ballerina on a moving disc rounded out the decorations.
