Our History
A storied tradition since 1967
OUR BEGINNINGS
In 1967, following Colorado Springs’ departure from the Denver Debutante Ball, Zoya Miller and a group of visionary women established a local celebration of their own. With the support of friends, The Broadmoor Hotel, and a dedicated committee, the first Colorado Springs Debutante Ball was born.
OUR PURPOSE
Since its inception, the Debutante Ball has celebrated exceptional young women from local high schools who demonstrate academic excellence, community involvement, and philanthropic spirit. Proceeds from the event benefit the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, with more than $710,000 contributed to date.
OUR TRADITION
For generations, the Debutante Ball has been a cherished family tradition and a significant milestone. It brings families together to create lasting memories while connecting Debutantes with a distinguished network of women across generations, professions, and communities.
