It was all unicorns, gowns and glitter at the Ocean Center in Daytona Beach, on Saturday Feb. 9, for the 17th-annual Sweetheart Ball.

The Junior League of Daytona Beach welcomed dads and daughters for a magical night of dancing, contests, fun and food. The young ladies got to
experience caricatures, a candy bar, selfie stations, a Spanos Art Car, ice cream from Jeremiah's Italian Ice and a unicorn named Sugar. The proceeds from the event went to The Junior League of Daytona Beach. Its programs help improve the lives of women, children and families in the community.
