Was Heaven found here? There was something happening in the gym that sophomores and seniors could not see; something that caused excitement and anticipation to grow in the juniors. It was Prom Time '85 and the gym was being transformed by the junior class angels into Heaven for the big night, April 20. Finally the students could put on those dresses and tuxedos they had been storing in their closets for months. Pictures were taken at the entrance by the official photographer and of course at home by snap-happy parents. Prom had finally arrived but the preparation started months before with the magazine sales that every junior endured to raise money for Prom. Then committees of juniors were formed in order to decorate the gym and carry the big evening off. On Saturday, April 20, 1985 everybody who attended prom was in heaven since that was the theme, but two particular seniors were singled out for honors. Roxanne Roberts and Brad Ronspies were crowned Prom Queen and King of the gala event. The dance ended at midnight but the night had just begun. The real fun started at Post Prom where great prizes were given out to lucky seniors. Games to play, food to eat, and dates close by added just the right touch to the end of a heavenly night. I cannot dream of a better place to receive an honor like this than Heaven. I was really happy to be crowned king since a couple of my good friends also were this year. 24 PROM
