Japanese Gardens becomes junior prom fheme This year the junior-senior prom was presented with an ori- ental theme called “Japanese Gardens.” Couples entered the prom over an authentic japanese bridge, which led them to their tables. Completing the scenes around the gym was a world of japanese trees, lamps, bridges, flowers, and a black light, fire breathing dragon. The stage was designed as an oriental tea room where refreshments were served. The din- ner included an appetizer of shrimp cocktail, lemonade, ham, baked potatoes, mixed vegetables, tossed salad, and sundaes. After the meal, the class history and prophecy was presented by Janet Miller and Anita Fox. Musical entertain- ment was provided by the group “White Licorice. Working towards a Japanese prom theme, junior class workers strive to meet their May 1 4th deadline. Dancing to the slow music of the group “White Licorice, is many of the attending prom goers and their dates. Scott McCance and his date Stacy Hill, receive some refreshments from Bobbi Wineman in the tea room. Prom couples wait to get their pictures taken in front of a beautiful garden with an oriental bridge.
