On Friday, February 8th I attended a special event organized by The Tim Tebow Foundation. It’s called “Night to Shine,” a prom-like formal dance to celebrate young adults with special needs. The prom is held at locations all around the world ~ on the same night.  I believe there were 100,000 participants!  He created his foundation based on his faith in God and his passion to help people. His mission is to bring faith hope and love to those needing a brighter day in their darkest hour of need. My mom found the perfect dress for the event. It was dark green/teal velvet, off the shoulder, and floor length. It fit perfectly…(After I dieted for two weeks!) I came home from work, and my mom helped me with a quick makeover!

I attended with my Friday Night Group from the “Y.” We arrived to a red carpet entrance!

  Each person was assigned a volunteer assistant for the evening. Mine were two teen twins sisters. They were so much fun! The room was decorated in light turquoise, silver, black, and white. The tables were set with center pieces. We received wrist corsages, and a tiara as we entered. There was a cool DJ with great music and  dancing. The best part of the night was the “Party Bus”!  It was decorated with lights and music was playing, and they had drinks for everyone. We drove around for a bit and partied. Then returned to the main dance. There was a karaoke room and photo machine. I hung out with my friends Joe and Shawn. It was amazing. At the end of the night we all received gift bags with a Tim Tebow wrist band, a cold cup tumbler and a note card with a Bible verse. Mine said, “I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made” Psalm 139:14.

There was also a video message from Tim Tebow for all in attendance, which was played on a large screen TV.  From seeing Tim on different TV shows and reading about him, I think he is a very good and inspiring person!  It was an unbelievably fun night and I can’t wait for next year! You can check out  www.TimTebowfoundation.org to read all the services under his foundation, and donate if you want to! The group Rascal Flatts wrote a song exclusively for the Night to Shine Video ~ which can be seen on this sight.  I love the song! Can’t wait to attend again next year!  Tim’s the Best!
