2012 Chasco Fiesta: Lighthouse Coronation Ball

The nine-day Chasco Fiesta offers a variety of family fun and entertainment -- including nightly concerts, a traditional Native American festival, a boat parade, and a street parade -- along the banks of the Pithlachascotee River.

Tonight's ball chooses a king and queen honored for their dedication to volunteerism and contributions to the community.

Net proceeds from this event benefit the nonprofit organization Lighthouse for the Visually Impaired and the Blind.
