Don't miss this weekend's Black and White Ball: Under the Sea

Take a dive into The Lost Colony's Gala "Under the Sea," a black-tie gala held from 6 to 11 p.m. on Saturday April 17 at the Wright Brothers Memorial Pavilion. At this annual fund-raising event guests enjoy sumptuous food, an open bar, silent auction, live auction, and the exciting sounds of the North Tower Band.
Guests will enjoy sumptuous appetizers, their choice of select seafood, sushi, pasta, carving station, and desserts along with an open bar, silent auction and a live auction. Live entertainment by North Tower is certain to get everyone off their feet and onto the dance floor.
The North Tower band (pictured here) is familiar throughout the mid-Atlantic since their start over 30-years-ago as a Triangle area acapella quartet. Their diversity, exciting floor show, and horn section have entertained audiences in New York, Montreal, Tampa, and Phoenix as well as Virginia and the Carolinas. During their three decades of professional entertainment they have shared the stage with many famous artists, released several chart topping songs, and entertained audiences all over North America.
