THIS COULD BE THE NIGHT With This Could Be the Night” as the 1986 Prom theme, the junior class presented the senior class with a Cinderella-type setting. Tracy Bear was elected Prom King by the junior class. He chose Deanna Sharkey to be his queen for the evening. Ann Young, senior class president, introduced the royal couple prior to the crowning. After giving his opening address to the spectators composed of parents and friends, Tracy and Deanna led the Grand March. The wall murals on the south wall were of brick walls and a night-time forest. Complimenting the Cinderella-type setting was a castle placed in the far-comer, servers dressed as castle servants, swans, walls draped with hanging vines, and a clock hanging from the center of the blue sky. The decorations gave the gym an old-world fairy tale air. The junior class decided not to hire a rock band to perform the music. They chose the Monroe City Band. Dancing to the music, the couples enjoyed a night to remember amid the castle relics. Pausing from the evening's activities, King Tracy Bear and his Queen Deanna Sharkey take a moment to enjoy a cup of punch. On May 3, the Monroe City Band prepares to fill the gym with music for the 1986 Prom. 14
