Bill and Elizabeth Ayers have been Directors of the National League of Junior Cotillions Tampa Chapter since 2005.  Their children, Dylan and Madeleine, participated in the program. Together with their support, the support of our Advisory Board and the encouragement of the many parents we have met along the way, we look forward to meeting the families each new season.  Over 3,500 students have attended our classes, dinners and balls over the years and we look forward to continuing to offer the program to families in the Tampa Bay area.
