Dancers Information
The Bal d’Europe will be held this year on Saturday, March 1, 2008 at the
Pierre Hotel, New York City. The Ball raises funds for the benefit of international
education programs. In 2008, the Bal d’Europe
beneficiary is the UnCommon Leadership Foundation.
In preparation for the Ball, there are weekly rehearsals and participating dancers are expected to
attend to be at peak performance level. There are also minor financial responsibilities associated

At the Ball, One of the
highlights of the evening is the performance of the “Quadrille de la Bal
