Senior Prom After two months of painting, drawing, building, and arranging, everything came together to create ‘Tve Had the Time of My Life” — Senior Prom ’88. The theme, named after the popular song from the blockbuster hit Dirty Dancing, was carried out in many ways. Adorning the door was a marquee surrounded by chaser lights announcing the opening of the Raider Theater. “Now Playing” was The Time Of My Life-Starring Seniors ’88.” Inside, this was actually true. A continuous slide show ran all night featuring some of the most memorable times during the seniors four years at Lee. Covering the walls were four murals. 32 feet long by 9 feet wide, one for each of their four years, on which were drawn noteworthy world news, political personalities, and school events. The refreshments included hot buttered popcorn, milk duds, and candy bars in keeping with the movie theme. All of these decorations were almost over- shadowed by the fabulous band Micheal Micheal and the Max. This band from San Antonio kept the over 500 strong crowd dancing until after midnight by playing such popular tunes as “Animal by Def Leppard. “Relax” by Frankie Goes to Hollywood, and original songs like “Sex Machine” and “The Bath Song.” “The seniors worked really hard,” praised sponsor Jane McDaniel. We spent many Saturday and Sunday afternoons, as well as working after school. The results were obvious.” Everyone had a blast and most agreed it was everything they wanted prom to be. It was a real party — definitely beyond what I could expect from a normal dance,” said Lance Barbin. Senior Senator Cathy Owens added,“lt meant a lot to me because I worked so hard on the decorations. It’s a night I’ll treasure in my memory forever! ■ Senior Prom 23
