The 34th Annual Beebe Ball was held Nov. 13 at Hudson Fields where cowboys and cowgirls kicked up their boots and raised funds for Beebe Healthcare. The event, held in a heated tent, brought out guests dressed in Nashville Chic and Country Music Awards attire. The night started with cocktails and  hors d’oeuvres followed by a delectable dinner. A live auction that included travel to Hawaii, hunting trips, tickets to a Jimmie Allen concert, fine jewelry and more got the guests reaching for their wallets. The night concluded with a dance concert by The Amish Outlaws.
