JUST ONE TOUCH’ The evening of May 17th. 1985, will definitely bring back many wonderful memories for those who attended the Junior Prom. It took many weeks of preparation to make it an enjoyable evening for everyone. Surely, the girls will never forget their aching feet as they hit shopping mall after shop-ping mall searching for that perfect dress and the guys will surely remember trying to build up enough nerve to ask that special someone . The weeks flew by and prom night finally arrived. At about seven o'clock the empty seats at the Mediterranean Manor began to fill. Everything looked beautiful. The white tablecloths, red napkins and flower centerpieces added that special touch, but that was nothing compared to the appearance of the students. Everyone looked stunning and seemed not to mind giving up leans and sneakers for the night. As the lights dimmed, the theme song Just One Touch was played and the couples headed for the dance floor. After that, things really started rolling. Dinner was served while D. J. Freddy Freak played. Crazy For You. After dinner. the dance floor was the main attraction where everyone was having fun doing their own special steps.
