Last minute fix-ups or steady dates, everyone combined under the same roof to dance all night at the junior-senior prom. NIGHT IN HEAVEN r 3 It was the Tuesday before the prom and I was sitting in my bed- room doing my Grammar Comp. assignment, when all of a sudden I saw a bright, golden light in the corner of my room. I rubbed my eyes to see if I was dreaming, which I wasn ' t — and standing there was my fairy god- mother. She spoke to me with her soft voice and blessed me with a beautiful Prom Dress, shoes and diamond jewelry. I guess she knew about the expenses of Prom. While I was admiring my new prom attire, she vanished out of sight, leaving me without the most important thing for Sophomore Missy Miller and Andy Marsh, senior, take a break for refresh- ments. Prom — a date. So the search was on for the perfect prom date to go with my perfect dress. Luckily, I met Prince Charming on my way to the grocery store. Now I had everything necessary for the prom. This year, the Junior-Senior Prom was held in the Carolina Room above the Village Bowl in Muncie. Couples spent A Night in Heaven dancing to the music of The Works. Midway through the Prom, Amy McCoy, senior was crowned 1984 Prom Queen. Her court consisted of Seniors Lydia Butts, Angie Mansker, and Cheyneen Carpenter and Junior Pam Fullenwider. After the prom, the After- Prom was held downstairs in the bowling alley. Students danced to the music of Electric Dance Company, while watching se- lected videos on the big screen. Also, the students played free video games and bowled. After a tough game, everyone could get free cokes and pizzas. The festivities ended about 4:00 a.m. and almost everyone headed home, or went out for breakfast. When I got home, I walked to my room to catch some ZZZZZ ' s. Once again, my fairy godmother appeared with a curious grin on her face. She wanted to know all about the prom and the night I spent with Prince Charming.
