The La Cala Lions, an organization dedicated to helping less fortunate locals, celebrated their Summer Ball with an array of speeches, a three-course meal, and a live performance.
The event took place on Saturday 29 June at La Sierra restaurant, overlooking the views of La Cala golf course and Mijas.
Live music from Tony Whitehouse
The guests danced all evening to the live music of singer Tony Whitehouse before settling down to listen to some speeches.
