All those months of fight- ing and disagreements. I thought we would never pull it off. But here we were, the night before the Prom. Of course I was late for decorating. Getting down to the community building, there sat everyone waiting to get in. And who had the key? ME. As we were working, sud- denly we realized something was wrong. Not only didn't we have enough decora- tions or scissors, but we were starving. Away goes Coach Auvil to pick up pizzas. How embarassing. He forgot to get the money before he left. Saturday morning came. As I rolled out of bed, I real- ized that every bone in my body was sore. Down to the community center I went again, thinking that a cou- ple hours would do it. WRONG!!! I was there until four o'clock. Mom was go- ing balloon crazy. The car resembled' a big purple and silver balloon coming down the road, especially after blowing up 72 of them. I de- cided that I'd better hand these things over ... a pur- ple one ... a gray one ... a purple one . . . It was almost four, my deadline. Oh no! No more tape. I ran across the road to the only store in town. Closed. Desperate, I went to a house and asked if I could borrow tape. How embarassing. Four o'clock. My deadline. I got into the car and slammed the door. Now what's wrong. The door wouldn't shut. Looking back at Julie, she was sitting there with her mouth wide open, eyes popping out of her head, I had shut her hand in the car door. Would we ever survive Prom night? 17

Soft music, dim lights. All of it adds up to a roman- tic evening for those who attended the annual Prom held at the Commu- nity Center. Fit tor a Queen and King. Tina Workman and Bub Wiseman were selected as Queen and King of the affair Getting Ready To Make Tonight A Night To Remember In just three hours I'll be at- tending my last Prom. I've got to make myself abso- lutely beautiful. I still need to shower, to wash my hair, which takes hours to dry, and I haven't even decided how to fix it yet. Shower's over. Time to conquer that mop. After 30 minutes of pulling, tugging and curling it still looks like a bird is nesting in it. Now for the dress. Hey Mom, could you come zip me up? One last look in the mirror as my date pulls up out front. Watch out here comes my trigger happy mom. Flash! One more Flash! And it's not over yet. Off we go to his house for even more pictures. Finally we're Prom bound. Check out those people. Hey you guys look terrific Flash! Flash! More pictures. I arrive just in time for the Grand March. I hope I re- member this thing. Where's my partner? The music is starting, The Greatest Love by Whitney Houston, that's a good selection. Now for the court. There goes Kim Saltis for princess, does she look shocked. The second princess, Gina Bur- ton, is ready to fall over. Now for the queen—Tina Workman, she's amazed. The King was easy, Bub Wiseman. The court is all . smiles as the theme song, This Could Be The Night, by Loverboy. drifts across the room. What a romantic evening. The Dougger is playing all the top tunes. Check out those guys dancing, they can really move. Everyone seems to be having a ball. The Prom, my last, turned out terrific. And to think, this really is a night to remember.
