Friday afternoon, Mayor Heartwell will be on hand for the ribbon-cutting at the newly-renovated "Ballroom At McKay Tower."  The event begins at 4:30.

Operations manager Chaundra Derks says the public banquet space has floor-to-ceiling granite, large pillars, a mezzanine overlooking the ballroom, chandeliers, beautiful carpet and state of the art lighting and sound.

The ballroom is available for any event, large or small.  The first event is scheduled in August and bookings are being accepted right now.
