Megan Cheek and Angela Tomlin stopped by our studios to gives us all the details of what to expect at this year's events. Tomlin explains, "We are going to start off tonight with our kick off party. Which is party under the palms.It will be a very nice upscale cocktail party. Then tomorrow we will have the style show luncheon. Then we will move into a children's event on Saturday. Santa will be there and we talked to him already and he's getting his sleigh packed to come in. One of most exciting event, Nieman Marcus is coming to Abilene to do a runway fashion event Saturday evening."

Cheek adds, " With that event we have VIP tickets available that are really exciting. The VIP ticket includes valet parking, separate entrance with a special reception for the VIP patrons, and front row seating and really really special swag bag that we've put together that has some special gifts and a coupon for a discount at Dolce Salon."

With all of the great gifts and VIP tickets to these events we wanted to know where the money went.
