Making a Difference This year's prom theme had to do with oriental ideas. The name for the prom was Oriental Enchant- ment. Avein Saaty was the stu- dent who gave this idea a chance. So light bulbs every- where clicked on in some heads and suggestions were flowing out. Slowly but surely all the suggestions were sorted out and the final plan was de- cided on. Once the final outline was completed, construction was underway. Walls were built! with the theme well ex- pressed. The colors gold, black and red were used to accent the theme. I When students entered the prom a pagoda or oriental house would be above their heads. A bridge would then be crossed as they began their way into the scenic wonder- land Inside various decora- tions relating to the theme could be seen. Then the day of the prom seemed to sneak up. Frantical- ly rushing to finish the prom decorations, junior helpers stayed up until all hours. Fi- nally everything came togeth- er the way it was planned. Jun- iors wait home for a quick nap and dreamt of the forthcoming prom. Junior Ginny Cunningham smiles as she works on the gorgeous oriental woman. Building the oriental walls are Jud Brown and Pal West. 24 Bev Peterson

Year of the Dragon The 1988 Junior Senior Prom was set in an Oriental Motif. The Junior Class converted the Logan Armory into an atmosphere full of enchantment. The 3-dimensional Pagoda was the entrance into an Asian courtyard filled with Oriental- styled decorations. The red, black, and gold colors accented the spectacular stained glass windows on the walls of the courtyard. A bridge crossing over an exotic pool of water was featured at the entrance. The Pagoda housed a built-in bar, where non-alcoholic beverages were once again served by the Sophomore bartenders. Couples enjoyed dancing to slow and fast music provided by Paradise Island, a Columbus based band. Juniors Nick Maniskas and Avein Saaty were crowned Prince and Princess, while Matt Shaw and Christine Gay were the King and Queen of the Oriental Enchantment on May 21, 1988. Following the Prom, the parents of the Junior and Senior Class members sponsored a post prom. “Dog Tags” were given away upon entrance to remember the festive event. Oriental Parasols and Fortune Cookies were used for the table decorations. Steve Frazier, from 92XFM in Columbus, provided entertainment to make the event an enormous success. After the post prom, the parents sponsored a free breakfast at the Moose Lodge. A memorable event that will long be remembered was created through the time, money, and hard work of the Junior Class and parents of the Junior and Senior Class members, as they made The Year of the Dragon come to life through the Oriental Enchantment. They should be commended on their outstanding creation.
