Prom creates mood under city lights City lights, top hats and canes all staged the prom theme Broadway by Night. Nearly 200 couples pur- chased S10 tickets to the occasion sponsored by the ju- niors and held in honor of the graduating class of 1987. Dedicated junior volunteers spent many hours after school planning and working on decorations. With the help of advisor Mr. Larry Ledgerwood, the dance held at the Thunderbird Inn, May 2, turned out to be a success. Music, provided by Destiny kept the couples alive and dancing to current popular hits all night long. Coronation ceremonies captured the center of atten- tion while one sophomore couple, two junior couples and three senior couples awaited anxiously for the an- nouncement. The president of the prom committee, Vicky Reese, pronounced Stephanie Stephenson Prom- Queen 1987 and Dave Findley was honored as king. The remainder of the court included senior princesses Trisha Korthuis and Kari Brent and their escorts Darren Wishard and john Speed, junior princesses DeAnne Crayne and Amber Coburn escorted by lim Ackermann and Mark Hansen, and sophomore princess Heather Tai- tano escorted by Iason Soderman. More than just a dance itself, the prom became an evening when many couples dressed up in fancy clothes, wore new hair styles and maybe even rented a limousine. Preceding the dance, many couples dined at elegant res- taurants in Portland and in the other direction as far as Olympia. Others preferred to stay close to home and ate at selected local restaurants. Upon entering the dance, couples had the choice of dancing in the Thunderbird ball room, waiting for pic- tures or taking advantage of the bar that served virgin coctails for 51.50. The backdrop of city light at night added to the theme of the dance and complemented the couples in pictures taken by Bob Almos. 1-Making their way to the coronation ceremonies, junior princess Am- ber Coburn is escorted by Mark Hansen. 2-Visiting the refreshment bar, couples take advantage of the complimentary beverages and snacks.3- Taking a break from dancing, friends gather to form memories. 4- Students await the crowning of the new queen and king. 5-Prom court includes QRow 11 Dave Findley and Stephanie Stephenson, tRow 21 Tri- sha Korthuis, Darren Wishard, Kari Brent and lohn Speed, QRow 31lim Ackermann, DeAnne Crayne, Amber Coburn and Mark Hansen, fRow 41jason Soderman and Heather Taitano. 6-Prom Queen Stephanie Ste- phenson smiles as Dave Findley is honored king. 7-Students enjoy the dance that the juniors worked hard to create.
