The theme Through the Years proceed- ed throughout the night of the prom con- structed by the 1983 junior senior prom committee. As 7:00 approached, couples started gathering at the Century Center for the opening festivities of the 1983 Prom. When entering the hall, that was decorated in light blue and yellow flowers, they noticed the entertainment for this evening would be brought by Britches , a band well known by MHS students. As slow dances enhanced the mood of the evening, so did long walks by the river. The progression of the evening brought excitement to Barb LaCluyse as she was named 1983 Prom Queen. Even though midnight brought an end to the dance, many couples didn ' t end it there, but rather con- tinued it at the beach and various other sites.
