Middletown, CT – Mayor Benjamin D. Florsheim is pleased to announce that the 18^th annual Mayor’s Ball will take place on Saturday, September 28, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. at the Elks Club, located at 44 Maynard Street in Middletown. The invitation is open to all members of the public and businesses.  

The Ball will benefit Middletown Animal Control and St. Vincent DePaul Middletown/Amazing Grace Food Pantry. Middletown Animal Control’s primary mission is public safety, and they have gone above and beyond in recent years to support their community and offer exemplary service. They have played a vital role in prosecuting numerous animal abuse cases and also provide compassionate care to injured or abandoned animals and connect them with loving homes. St. Vincent De Paul Middletown (SVDP), along with the Amazing Grace Food Pantry operated by SVDP, play an essential role in providing meals, employment and housing assistance, and other essential services to the most vulnerable members of our community. Starting this year, SVDP is partnering with the City of Middletown to make food and other necessities available for all Beman Middle School and Middletown High School students with the establishment of on-campus food pantries.

The Mayor’s Ball will feature dinner, drinks, and dancing. Dress for the event is formal attire. Perceptions Photography will be onsite to capture images of the evening, which will be available for purchase after the event.

Tickets for the Ball are $125.00 per person. There are also several levels of sponsorships available, ranging from $50 to $2,300.
