ABOUT GWINNETT COUNTY ALUMNAE CHAPTER (GCAC)
A Cotillion is a formal presentation of young ladies, referred to as
debutantes, to society at a formal ball, after they have developed high
moral and technical character, social etiquette skills, and acquired a sense
of responsibility and achievement.
A Beautillion is a rite of passage in which young men move from one
stage of their lives to another. It signals a young man’s coming of age.
There is a public presentation of young men to society at a formal ball.

“ "My experience as a debutante in the 2008 Crème de la Crème
Cotillion was unforgettable. During the debutante process I gained
skills in many areas such as table manners, interviews and SAT
preparation. The money I earned from the Cotillion was used
towards my books in school." ~ 2008 Debutante
“ "The Cotillion~Beautillion program has changed my life because it
helped me increase my self esteem, make new friends and stay away
from negativity." ~ 2010 Beau

Transportation
Advertising in the souvenir program is another great way to
promote your business. The program is being produced so that
our Cotillion~Beautillion court and their guests will have a lasting
memory of this great experience. Editorial content includes
biographical information for each Debuatante or Beau, a review of
Cotillion~Beautillion activities and other exciting features. More
than 400 copies of this year’s program are expected to be
distributed. And you don’t have to be a large corporation to
advertise! Small ads are very economical and allow parents,
grandparents and friends to send encouraging and supportive
messages to that special young person about how much they
believe in their development.
The deadline for advertising in the souvenir program is December
3, 2011. Full payment along with the camera-ready ad is
necessary to guarantee placement. Please make check or money
