Last month, the American Cancer Society celebrated 30 years of the Cowford Ball, its signature fundraising event and premiere Western-themed gala in Jacksonville.

This year’s milestone event was held on Saturday, Aug. 23 at a new location – the Epping Forest Yacht and Country Club – and welcomed guests for an evening of drinks, dining, dancing and more to support The American Cancer Society’s mission.

Inspired by the society’s nationwide Cattle Barons’ Ball, the inaugural Cowford Ball was named for Jacksonville’s original moniker and dedicated by ACS volunteer Dot Fischette.
