Bright marquee letters spelling "SNEAKERBALL" in a decorated event space with wooden flooring and seating.

The N.C. A&T State University Child Development Laboratory presented the First Annual Winter Sneaker Ball at the Alumni Center on campus. The dress-to-impress affair required a favorite pair of sneakers and featured a red-carpeted Aggie-branded photo back drop, a 360-photo stand, gifts, prizes, food, music with a DJ, and a paneled dance floor. THE LETTERED DANCE FLOOR.

The N.C. A&T State University Child Development Laboratory presented the First Annual Winter Sneaker Ball on Dec. 13 at the Alumni Event Center on campus. The dress-to-impress affair required a favorite pair of sneakers and featured a red-carpeted, Aggie-branded photo back drop, a 360-photo stand, gifts, prizes, food, music with a DJ, and a paneled dance floor, where the students showed their best moves. 

"Our first Winter Sneaker Ball was a success,” said Jawan Burwell, Ed. D., director of the center. “Thank you to the amazing vendors and our phenomenal hospitality committee that helped to make it one to remember."
