An Experience Hosted by Washington Events,
Presented by the Pontiac Heritage Historic Society
Every September, the Pontiac Heritage Historic Society welcomes distinguished guests from throughout the region into a new story—one filled with whispered secrets, unexpected discoveries, and a mystery in which everyone may play a part.
Dearest Reader…
CONSIDER YOURSELVES WARNED
One should never underestimate the power of a well-placed whisper.
Last season, Society was summoned by a most alarming rumor: the castle was failing, the Queen was losing control, and the King had descended into madness.
No one knew what was true.
Guests followed the whispers, searched the estate, examined the clues, and discovered that the Crown’s supposed downfall concealed something altogether unexpected.
But this season, there is no question that Her Majesty’s summons is real.
The Second Annual Pontiac Heritage Ball is approaching—and Society is preparing for another unfor
Prepare your gowns. Tailor your suits. Practice your introductions. Guard your secrets—and choose your companions carefully.
The silent auction shall return.
The snooping shall continue.
An elegant dinner shall be served.
The ballroom shall come alive.
And another mystery must be solved.
Some guests will arrive seeking answers. Others may arrive carrying them.
But this season, Her Majesty is searching for something far more precious:
SOCIETY’S DIAMOND OF THE SEASON
Who among Society possesses the grace, presence, charm, and undeniable brilliance worthy of the Crown’s attention?
Do not arrive merely dressed to attend.
Come prepared to be seen.
The Crown awaits. 👑
