Debutantes and Mothers attended the Spring Mother-Daughter Luncheon on May 15 at the Greensboro Country Club. Shortly after completing exams, the Debs gathered for their first event full of socializing, photographing and lots of information.
A short program following the lunch was led by Chair Donna Camp and Honorary Chair Carolyn Banks, who spoke to the young ladies about the fun year that awaits them and provided some heartfelt advice. Laura Green this year’s Mistress of Ceremonies and Board Chairperson of the Greensboro Symphony Orchestra in addition to Ann Daniel, board member of the National Cotillion Foundation.
Two former Debs, Selby Chipman and Erin Cooper, returned to model deb gowns for the fashion show.

Deb Informal PJ Party
Guild Debutantes enjoyed an informal and fun gathering dressed in their PJs on May 20 at the beautiful home of Laura Green. The Debs were able to spend quality time getting to know one another as well as Chair Donna Camp and Honorary Chair Carolyn Banks. What an exciting year this is going to be!
Following a casual pizza dinner, several Committee Chairs presented valuable information about the upcoming Presentation Ball, dress selection, etiquette, invitations and other future events. They even enjoyed watching the past ball video while eating popcorn.
Each deb received a monogrammed pillow case as well as personalized gifts from Guild Sponsor, Lancôme.
Thank you to the committee members who got into the spirit of the party and dressed up in their PJs to make it extra fun for all. Also thank you to Laura Green for hosting the event and to the committee members Brenda Macfadden, Barbara Partlow, Laura Green and Lorrie Sham for planning and coordinating the fun evening.
