Twenty seven young women from La Cañada Flintridge, La Crescenta, Glendale, Los Feliz, and the surrounding area will be honored by the Glendale Chapter of National Charity League, Inc. at the 74th annual Senior Presentation Ball, which will be held at the Sheraton Universal Hotel.
The Senior Presentation is a tradition for the Glendale Chapter, highlighting and thanking the Class of 2025 for its 5,819 hours of community service. The young women, or Ticktockers as they are known, began their NCL journey in seventh grade, working with their mothers, called Patronesses, to support the chapter’s philanthropic partners. Over the years, the class volunteered at American Red Cross, Arroyos and Foothills, Ascencia, Door of Hope, La Cañada Tournament of Roses, Operation Gratitude, Pasadena Humane Society, Twelve Oaks Senior Living, Union Station, USC Verdugo Hills Hospital, YWCA of Glendale, the Chapter’s annual rummage sale and more.
“The Senior Presentation Ball celebrates the culmination of each Ticktocker’s six years of community service, leadership development and cultural experiences, which are the pillars of our program. Family and friends will gather with chapter members to recognize the Ticktockers’ accomplishments, volunteer service and the mother-daughter bond that is the cornerstone of NCL,” said Chapter President Stacy Sartor. “They have truly embraced the spirit of NCL and we look forward to their exciting and successful futures.”
The Ball will include a welcome from Ticktocker Sabrina Ordubegian, president of the Class of 2025, and from Grade Level Advisor Teresa Oakland.
The Class has chosen the theme Timeless Moment and an accompanying theme song, “The Way You Look Tonight” by Frank Sinatra. The evening will include the presentation of each Ticktocker, the father-daughter waltz, the Senior Service Award and a farewell toast. The chairs of the Presentation Ball are Rachel Stanley and Jennifer Wolpert along with the class committee chair Monica Ordubegian.
The mistresses of ceremonies for the Ball will be Sharla Bohman and Sara Sadhwani.
The Glendale Chapter of NCL, Inc., was first organized in 1942 and became a chartered chapter of National Charity League, Inc. in 1958. It works with over 20 local philanthropies, supporting them with hands-on service through the mother-daughter relationship.
