28 young women to be presented

   The Colorado Springs Debutante Ball has been a tradition in Colorado Springs for 41 years. It honors young women and their families who have made significant contributions to their schools and communities.

   Proceeds benefit the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center's only ongoing acquisition fund. Through 2007, more than $485,000 has been raised in support of the museum's permanent collection.
