 The Knoxville-Knox County CAC Office on Aging held its Snowflake Ball at Rothchild Catering and Conference Center. The ball included live music, dancing, a silent auction and a catered dinner. The culmination of the evening was the crowning of the 2026 Snowflake King and Queen, presided over by emcee Whitney Kent. All funds raised through the Snowflake Ball will go in support of the Senior Compassion Program, a unique system that provides low-income adults over the age of 55 an opportunity to help frail and housebound seniors in the community by offering them friendship and support free of charge.
