Alesha N. Burkeen speaks to more than 100 women about the list of events during Operation Ball Gown at Miller's Landing Sept. 23. The evening started off with a few door prizes given away from local sponsors of the event followed by an invite from a local sergeant to "Jersey Shore" star Snooki, played by Jesi Flora, a worker with Cunningham's. After showing the invite to Snooki, Alesha N. Burkeen, director of MCFTB, started off the festivities with a rundown of events for the evening which involved modeling of some ball gowns and a skit showing what is indecent dress, acts and dancing for the Marine Corps Ball. "The Marine Corps Ball is a way to show respect to our traditions in the Marine Corps," said Burkeen. "As spouses we need to respect those traditions because we are a part of the Marine Corps family so they are our traditions as well. This event helps show what is inappropriate for the ball."
