This year Ross University Bahamas supported the event as executive sponsors. The Red Rose Ball Committee celebrated their 10th Anniversary of promoting and educating through the Grand Bahama AIDS Awareness Committee with their message of “Prevention Now!” Special visiting guests for the ball were Her Excellency Nicole Avant, newly appointed United States Ambassador to The Bahamas who spoke on her administration's upcoming efforts with AIDS awareness; past US Ambassador to The Bahamas, John Rood; and Katherine 'Kay' Forbes-Smith, The Bahamas' Consul General in Atlanta. "It's our honour and pleasure to be an executive sponsor of the 10th annual Red Rose Ball.
