V l ig, H Q? '. 47,- 2 li-4 ,Z Q J ws - Q VI fl ll 3 18 ' Prom Tradition ends Prom at the Riviera. Almost as much as a tradition as the dance itself is the Riviera Ballroom. 1979 marked the last time that Urbandale would hold its Prom there. Located in Riverview Amusement Park, the ballroom will close its doors for the final time, as the park was sold. Purchased by Adventure- land, Riverview's rides will move there. The fate of what is left of the park has not been decided. Long remembered for its place- ment near a lagoon, the park carries many memories. Children will re- member hot summer days filled with hours of enjoyment. Others will per- haps remember a moonlight stroll in the Riviera courtyard. Prom 1979 was held Saturday, May 5 at 8:30 pm. Couples danced to the music of Sierra. The theme of the dance seemed very appropriate: Now as the years roll on each tlme we hear our favorite song, The memories come along, older times we're missing, Spending the hours reminiscing. 1 Juniors Brad Sabin and Teri Christensen are positioned for their couple picture. 2 Sierra provides the entertainment. 3 Gary O'Neal, Jerri Robbins, Richard Ja- mison and Jennifer Golden take time out from dancing to talk. 4 Seniors Mark Rhoads and Kathy Doerings- feld enjoy a slow dance.
