WHERE:    City Side Convention Center at the DECC (Duluth Entertainment & Convention Center) in the Lake Superior Ballroom.  Located on second floor at the top of the escalators and to the left.  There will be signs posted with directions from ramps and entrances.
Parking  DECC parking lot or ramp. Cost is $5 per vehicle.   You may drop off and pick-up your daughter at Entrance "B".  

SEATING:  Open seating for eight at each table.  Inner tables around the dance floor may be removed after dinner to enlarge the dance floor area - these tables will have signs.  We cannot guarantee groups of 8 will be seated all together.      Please be seated by 5:30 pm.

*** SAFETY RULES***:  At the request of the Father Daughter Ball Coordinators and the DECC Staff, we ask that you keep your daughter supervised at all times.  As the DECC is open to the public, we cannot keep our event private & totally secured.    Your daughter(s) may not use the elevator or escalators without your presence.  Please discuss this before arriving. We will be checking your tickets upon arrival. You will be asked to show your ticket each time you enter and exit the ballroom.

Dads: please keep your tickets in your pocket.  We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, but we would rather error on the side of caution than have an incident.  We thank you in advance for your compliance.

MENU:  Creamy chicken served on cheese cavatappi pasta with a side of steamed baby carrots, rolls & butter, salad and cupcakes for dessert.
​If you have any special dietary requests, please indicate those requests when you purchase your tickets online in the comment section.

​MUSIC:    Music is tasteful and fun.  You will recognize many familiar and old favorites!  Be ready for the Limbo and the Chicken Dance.  This year's music will be provided by Diamond Max Entertainment.

ATTIRE:    This is a special occasion and an opportunity to wear your "Sunday Best".  Daughters usually wear dresses - some come in gowns. Fathers often wear dress shirts and ties; suits are common attire (even a few tuxedos). Coat check available to the left of Entrance “B”, Split Rock Room (at bottom of escalators).

PHOTOS:   Lynnette's Portrait Design will be offering portrait packages for a charge.  If interested, please VIEW PRICE LIST for professional portrait package information, then print, fill out requested information and bring along with your check payable to “Lynnette’s Portrait Design” or pay with cash. 
Pictures will begin when the doors open at 4:15pm in the French River Room - located on the second floor across from the ballroom. We will close briefly for the dinner hour from 5:20 - 6:15 so dinner can be served in a timely manner.    Pictures will then resume and go through the early part of the evening.  The DJ will make a couple of last call announcements.   So,  enjoy your evening by not spending all your time waiting in line! 
​ 
DOOR SERVICE:  Our volunteers will be available to stand and wait with your daughter(s) at Entrance “B” while you go to park your car or to pick it up after the event - Volunteers with  Father Daughter Ball LOGO NAME BADGES will be posted at this door - speak with them directly.  Again, the drop-off and pick-up location is Entrance "B"-  Bottom of escalators.
  
WASH ROOM ATTENDANTS:  There are two attendants available at all times to escort/assist your daughter as needed to use the restroom, etc. Let us know how we can help.   Look for the ladies wearing our LOGO Badges.  We want this to be a memorable evening for you.   A"family restroom" is located next to the other restrooms on the ballroom floor level. 

PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES:   If you are interested in financially partnering with our ministry or giving a gift in kind, please contact us to request information.  Any remaining funds from this year’s event will go directly back into the ministry for next year.
 
LOST & FOUND:  Items found during the event are usually brought to the information table outside of the ballroom.  Please check there first.   We will then bring these items periodically to the DJ to announce during the evening.   All items remaining after the event will be placed in the lost and found at the DECC.  You may call the DECC at 218.722.5573 the following business day to claim your items.
