VICTORY rally ball

VICTORY Houston, an all-volunteer group working to fund local cancer research, held its first-ever Rally Ball at 713 Music Hall at the Post in downtown Houston. VICTORY Rally Ball co-chairs Elizabeth Fulghum, Stephanie Morris, and Melissa Hobbs (pictured, from left) coordinated the evening for more than 850 supporters. KPRC meteorologist Frank Billingsley led the pop-art themed evening as master of ceremonies, while guests enjoyed Las Vegas-style gaming, tequila and whiskey tastings, and music by Yacht Rock Revue and Disco Expressions. Auctioneer Johnny “Bravo” Holloway, donning a gold sequined jacket, engaged the crowd during the live auction. Supporters viewed the unique tribute wall made of colored ribbons, each representing a different type of cancer. The evening raised $1.6 million for pediatric cancer initiatives in Greater Houston.
