Since prom is in about two weeks, we went around the school asking students if they had been to prom, if they were going to prom this year and what their favorite post prom activity was.

Junior, Allie Mitchell stated, “I am most excited about having a good time with my friends. The night is dedicated to a safe place for students to forget about the stress of school work and other obligations. I’ve heard a lot of talk of the amazing decorations and food that is going to be there, so it should be a great time!”

Senior Holly Phelps said, “I went to prom last year and I’m not going to prom this year, but my favorite part of post prom was the hypnotist.”

Junior Brianna Hamel remembers Post Prom as “A night full of memories. I remember the theme was “All Around the World” and when we walked in they handed us a passport with all the different places to go. One of these places was Paris, France where they had pastries and an Eiffel Tour. I think decorating around the theme truly make the night that much more memorable and enjoyable. The decorations for Survivor will be amazing!”

Junior Danica Haney recalled, “Post prom last year was a fun environment, but I do think this year will be a lot better! Last year there were entertaining games but from what I heard this year’s activities are bigger and better. I’m most excited to see who gets hypnotized and for the food because it is always amazing.”

Senior Casey Engelhorn said, “I went to prom last year and I am going this year. My favorite part of post prom was actually being hypnotized.”

Senior Sara Thede said, “I went to prom last year and I am going this year. My favorite part of post prom was the fantastic food.”

Post prom is a highly anticipated event organized by Normal West junior students and parents. Its emphasis is on providing a safe environment for students to have fun together on prom night. The event will be taking place on the night of Saturday, April 23rd from 10:30 pm-4am. The theme this year is survivor, so come out to experience the tropical decorations, smorgasbord of food, and watch fellow peers be hypnotized! The fun is endless on Post Prom Island.
