A Fantasy Always and Forever oe | Springtime meant Prom time as April saw the Soph Hop and May saw the Junior-Senior Ball. The Sophomores worked diligently, personally adding last minute touches; while the Juniors and Seniors let the Sheraton at the Wharf do the worrying. Though different styles, both dances proved to be successful and the evenings were enjoyed by all.
