SIX debutantes entered an enchanted woodland at the Boort District Hospital ball on Friday night. 
The ball, a major community fundraiser for the health service, was the culmination of dance training over recent months.
Debutantes and their partners were presented to a memorial hall packed with family and friends.
Accompanying the debs were flower girls and page boys who had earlier arrived at the hall dodging rain for a final run-through under the watchful eye of trainers Sherryn and Chris O’Flaherty.
BDH CEO Donna Doyle acted as master of ceremonies for the evening.
The ball was organised by a community committee with support from BDH and local businesses.
All money raised from the evening will be donated to BDH.
The debutante set’s presentation dances were the Stanthorpe Schottische, Alpine Stroll and Mayfair Quickstep.
Debutantes were: Kathleen Hocking (partnered by Lachie Hall), Sienna Boyd (James Allison), Chloe Hare (Jack Potter), Caitlin Zanker (Ryan O’Flaherty), Ella Streader (Sam Toose), Jessica McClelland (Tristian Zanker). Flower girls were: Isobel Crilly, Kristie Young, Lexie Kane, Isabelle Melville, Daisy Nuttall and Izzy Rowe.
Page boys: Tyler Stringer, Hunter Nelson, Cruz Nuttall, Jack Rowe, Hugh Johnston and Archie Rowe.
