SofA Ball 2011 [PICTURES]

Last Friday night, SofA held our third annual SofA Ball in the Carlton Hotel, Castletroy.

The night kicked off with a muled wine reception with our Santa Photo Boot. This proved quite popular as you will see in our photos. The wine was followed by a wonderful dinner, a bit early for turkey and ham, but it got us in the Christmas mood.


Following the meal a special guess arrived to give the guests a little gift of  Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe, sweets. Then following a speech by our wonderful presidents, we started the evenings entertainment.

A local Shannon Band, Sticky FIngers kicked off the festivities. The guys played a blinder and it wasn't long before the entire room was up and dancing. Sticky Fingers played well into the morning and reluctantly gave up the floor to our DJ for the remainder of the night, Jeff Lambert. Jeff keep the dancing going till everyone was exhausted and looking for an after party.

With everyone paring off and nothing left to do but find a bed for the night everyone left the hotel with a smile on their faces to join the party in our "presidential suit" AKA college court.

We would also like to thank Paddy Philips for the great photos from the night and dont worry we have vetted all the pictures so there won't be any embarrassing flashbacks.
