The 2016 Dallas Symphony Debutantes were honored at a cocktail reception and buffet dinner on November 25 at the Meyerson Symphony Center. The debutantes, honor guards and their families were welcomed by DSOL President Melissa Lewis and Presentation Ball Chair Nancy Labadie. Anne Blomeyer was the event chair.

Each of the 43 debutantes were formally introduced by emcee Stan Gardner and joined by an honor guard escort for the presentation. The evening was the start of the holiday weekend which included a mixer for the debs and honor guards, as well as a Bow Boot Camp for the debs.

During the Christmas Holidays, the Debs will return for another busy schedule of parties and bow practice. All the many events will culminate with the 30^th Presentation Ball which will be held on February 20.
