Poinsettia Ball celebrates 30 years of supporting children and families

The Paul Ecke, Jr. Poinsettia Ball celebrated 30 years of supporting children and families in North County at the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA. In the beautifully transformed Gary E. Biszantz Family Gymnasium, guests rang in the holiday season and enjoyed a gourmet dinner catered by Behind the Scenes and dancing to the tunes of The Mighty Untouchables. Surrounded by an abundance of beautifully festive poinsettias, the evening featured bidding on silent auction items including vacation packages, holiday gifts, jewelry, and unique items and experiences. All proceeds of the event benefited the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA’s Scholarship Program and community partnerships. This year’s co-chairs were siblings Lizbeth Ecke and Paul Ecke, III.
