MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas -- The Montgomery County Heart Ball is right around the corner and the American Heart Association (AHA) is thrilled with the remarkable auction packages available to guests this year. As a preview, the auction will feature a two-year prepaid lease for a 2018 BMW 530i with a custom red wrap, donated by BMW of Houston North.

“The Heart Ball is the most glamorous event in Montgomery County and our auction packages must match that,” said Cliff McAden, Corporate Market Director for the Montgomery County Heart Ball. “I spend an entire year securing the most exclusive and luxurious experiences for our guests and I am excited to present this year’s amazing collection of auction items.”

The Montgomery County Heart Ball, themed “A Night at the Grand Prix: Rev Your Hearts,” hopes to raise over $1.2 million for the fight against our Nation’s No. 1 and No. 5 causes of death - heart disease and stroke.

The black-tie event auction is chaired by Candi Thibodeaux Guilbeau and Gayle Robertson Brand, and will welcome over 800 of Montgomery County’s finest philanthropists, business leaders and advocates to the Woodlands Waterway Marriott on Saturday, February 24, 2018.

Gayle Brand has been with Chicago Title since 1995 and was promoted to President in 2007. Under her direction, Chicago Title Houston has expanded its geographic footprint in the Houston area to meet the needs of customers. Candi Guilbeau heads up the Uber Luxe division of Keller Williams The Kink Team, specializing in VIP/White Glove service for people in The Woodlands area with homes at the price point of 1 million plus.

The Heart Ball will feature a live and silent auction, music by Intensity, and welcomes ABC 13 Investigative Reporter and Woodlands local, Ted Oberg, as guest emcee for the fourth year. This event will honor Sherry and Richard Lane, and event co-chairs are Marina Silver Frenchak and Bryan Frenchak.

To top off the evening, hear the remarkable story of Halle Kate Spivey who celebrated her first birthday in December. She had her first open heart surgery when she was only 3 days old and was given a pacemaker before she was 6 months old.

Tickets for the event are available for purchase, and can be found at www.montgomerycountyheartball.ahaevents.org. If you would like to support American Heart Association and have an auction package to donate to the Heart Ball, contact Cliff.McAden@heart.org.
