Just You and I Are ou sure my hair looks all right? 1 e still got to paint my nails, do you think he ' ll like my dress? Where will he pin my flowers, my dress is strap- less? Many questions and last minute worries went through everyone s mind on the night of Saturday, May 3, 1986. Guys worried about their appearance just as much as their dates. For many students this was their first prom. The guys realized dressing up in tuxes and going out on the town wasn ' t so bad after all. A lot of time and money goes into the prom every year, and this year was definitely no exception. Guys had to rent tuxes, order their dates flowers, and buy their dinner. Powell Studios was at the prom to take pictures of couples for an additional cost. Students realized fi- nancing a prom was not easy, especially for the 1987 Junior Class. Prom weekend began with Prom Dinner at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, May 2, 1986. Instead of the traditional roast beef and ham dinner, a casual gariic bread, salad, and pizza dinner was served.

It was held at the Community Center in Three Rivers. The colors for the decorations were pink and burgun- dy; crepe paper, balloons, and carna- tions helped to enhance the romantic setting. Instead of having the usual, a band for entertainment, music was pro- vided by the Sound Enforcer. The Grand March took place at 11:00 p.m. and was led by the junior class vice-president Sheri Lutz. The long awaited event came to a close at midnight. After the prom many couples met at each others houses and enjoyed the rest of the evening together, eating, watching television, or listening to mu- sic. After a long and hectic weekend many students found relaxation, sun, and more fun on the beaches of Lake Michigan. Sweet nothings. grins at what his date, whispers in his ear.
