A celebration unto itself the Society of Martha Washington Colonial Pageant and Ball is one of the most well-known social events in South Texas. The President, George Washington and his gracious wife, Martha Dandridge Washington serve as the central figures in this beautiful event. Donning some of the most spectacular dresses in the world and lavishly bejeweled, the lucky young ladies and their escorts participate in an elaborate presentation that is both historical and awe-inspiring. The Ball begins immediately following the Pageant.
