'Q 1 as V fii Q 5 at-I ,cc 2, 'gs H KM F i Students find romance and fun at prom '87 ll A night to A Night to Remem- ber. That was not only the theme to Prom 1987, but also the opinion of over 700 students who attended. For the fourth year, the Stouffer Concourse Hotel provided a romantic and funfilled environment for the record-breaking crowd at the gala event. A ril 2.4 proved to 'be a P . busy day for most of the . Central students who at- tended Prom. So busy in I fact, that over 200 students had to miss school. Even some who weren't going couldn't seem to make it to school. However, most skipped because they wanted to sleep late and then start preparing for the evening. On Prom day I had so much to do. I had to get my hair done and run around for rented cars and stock- ings. After all that, I didn't even want to go to Prom, stated Gena Horton 1121. In the days preceding Prom, girls searched frantically for the perfect dress, gener- ally spending 5100-5300, while guys tackled the job of renting a tuxedo 1550- 5751, buying tickets 1550 a couple1, possibly renting a limo 1575-5150 for the evening1, and preparing for the after dance festivities 1hotel rooms 540-5100 each1. Obviously, some guys shyed away from possible dates because of the high cost. jim Gossrau 1111 stat- ed, Prorn is definitely an expensive event. By not go- ing this year, I'll have something to look forward to next year. 1Continued on Page 271 . 1 1 iQ I A Stepping out in style, joe King 1121 tif- and Stephanie Uelk 1101 fashionably ' 'Q ti' ex, arrive in a Cloud Limo. 5.-. x 141: V Trying to guess what the Prom dinner consists of, Craig Heidemann 1121 and Lisa Wurth 1121 dance to the music of Slander.

We had Bon Jovi's old limo with Dan Dierdorf's per- sonal driver. We were tak- en all over downtown and at the Arena everyone thought we were Billy Joel, commented Becky Emert QIZJ. As Friday afternoon fi- nally arrived, excitement mounted as students dressed in their best. Last- minute adjustments were - made before dates arrived. - Then parents took tons of pictures and movies to capture the moment. Meanwhile, Junior Class sponsor Steve Tebo and the class officers were prepar- ing the decorations for the special night. Once at the dance, cou- ples were whisked away into a romantic wonder- land. Balloons graced every table and the dim light en- hanced the setting as ev- eryone sat down for a din- ner of steak, baked potato, and other unidentified foods. Some of the food was all right. However, I wish they would've taken time to cook the steak and green beans, stated Dar- ren Brigmann 1121. After dinner, everyone came alive to the music of Sander. Couples danced close and groups of friends hopped to the beat. Late in the evening, a break was taken from the dancing while junior an- nouncers Tami Harkin, Jill Geurkink, and Karen Mar- tin announced the 1987 Prom Court. Everyone awaited the names of the new Prom King, Brad Traupmann fllj, and Queen, Gina Lederle C11J. I'd never been so sur- prised in my life! Brad and I were both in complete shock, Gina said. When the dance ended, the night really just began for many students as they retired to hotel rooms or homes to party the rest of the night. The fun ended the next morning when groups of friends went to breakfast and others some- how crawled into work. Most students agreed that April 24 was truly A Night to Remember.
