The Diabetes Foundation of Mississippi’s 41st annual Bacchus Ball Gala was held recently at the Country Club of Jackson. The evening included regional music, Creole cuisine, and a silent auction.
Held during carnival season, the gala helps ensure the foundation continues its mission ministering to Mississippians living with type 1 or 2 diabetes. Caroline Lowe was chairman of the benefit with co-chair Holly Voller. Attending the event were (from left) Bryan and Laurin Bailey.
