PROM ’83 Night to Treasure Prom 1983 was held on Friday, May 13, 1983 at Harold ' s Club in Lynwood, Illinois. The Class of 1984 had worked for three years to raise funds so they could provide a nice prom for the Class of 1983 and their efforts paid off, in that everyone enjoyed Truly. T aters. Potatoes and beef were among the courses for dinner at Prom. Dinner was an experience in itself, said Terri O ' Brien, one prom goer. Perhaps the nervousness of the couples accounted for the fact that after dinner there was more food left on plates than in stomachs. u R oyalty. Susie Vukovich and Mark Nondort were announced Prom Queen and King. They shared a dance together, then the rest of the Prom Court joined in. mbrella. Rain on prom night - the ultimate disaster for prom goers All those hours in front of the mirror were in danger of being made into wasted hours by the downpour on the night of the prom. Some girls had become quite upset about their hair getting wet while walking from car to door, but fortunately everyone was able to pul! himself or herself together by the time prom pictures were taken by Allen Photography. L aughter Prom was a time for fun and enjoyment that waf taken advantage of by alt who attended. Pawnz, the very talented band that played for the dance, kicked off the evening with their first song, im- mediately the dance floor was filled. Students were going absolutely crazy, dancing The Bunny Hop and The Twist in addition to many dances never even heard of before. Some even went so far as to climb on one another ' s shoulders as a really original form of expression. Students weren ' t the only ones having a good time, however. The Hammond High Faculty came out on to the dance floor to let their hair down also. Dr. Feuerbach had an exceptionally great time. He was at one point dancing with thre e girls at one time! Y ears to come. Certainly Prom 1983, Truly, will be a memory that all who attended will cherish for years to come. Everyone looked very nice and enjoyed the rare chance to go formal, although there was little - formality and much love and friendship at Prom. Toward the end of Prom ' the traditional Grand March was held, during which each guy removed his date ' s garter. Soon after, everyone said their good-byes and thoughts turned to after-prom plans. Places couples went dur- ing Prom weekend included Great America, Shaeffer Lake, and Turkey Run. All in all. Prom 1983 was Truly a wonderful experience and one tj at no one whom attended will soon forget. Wasting no time in hitting the dance floor, the prom goers try to get as many dances in as they can in case their prom turns out to be like the one in the movie, Prom Night. ' ' 10 Student Life Prom
