“The Diamond Celebration: A Past to Cherish, A Promise to Fulfill” is the theme of this year’s Delnor Auxiliary Charity Ball.

It will be held Saturday, Nov. 14, at the St. Charles Country Club in St. Charles. The event will mark 60 years of the Delnor Charity Ball tradition, and will feature cocktails, a live auction, dinner, dancing and entertainment reminiscent of the period when the first ball was held.
 
Tickets cost $175, and the ball is black tie optional. All proceeds raised will be used to fulfill the Auxiliary’s $1 million dollar pledge of support to Delnor Health System. To reserve tickets, call (630) 208-4265 or visit www.supportdelnor.org.

For a little added spectacle, The Schaumburg Flyers professional baseball team will give hundreds of women the chance to hunt for a real Richard Allen Jewelers diamond ring at the Alexian Field Diamond Dig after the game Thursday, July 16.

The first 500 women 18 and older who attend the 7:05 p.m. game will receive a digging tool upon entrance. The tool will be used to find the diamond buried at an unspecified location on the infield just after the game. Valued at $1,500, the diamond ring is provided by game sponsor Richard Allen Jewelers.
 
Alexian Field is at 1999 S. Springinsguth Road, Schaumburg. For details, call (847) 891-2255 or visit www.flyersbaseball.com.
