UHS: The Prom and After-Prom

What a fabulous job the talented UHS After-Prom committee did! The theme for this year's event was "A Voyage Thru Time"; the misspelling was deliberate and incorporated the Unionville "U" logo. The adventure started with the Stone Age (the restrooms were labeled "Cavemen" and "Cavewomen") and progressed through Ancient Rome, the Wild West, a 1920s casino (with real dealers at the tables), a 1950s soda shop, a dimly lit 1960s crash pad (loved the lava lamps), a 1970s disco (yes, of course there was a mirrored ball), and a 1980s video arcade. Plus there were escape rooms, and inflatables were set up in the gymnasium.
We visited as part of the community walk-through early in the evening -- the After-Prom went on until 2 a.m. -- and saw lots of family members and friends doing the same thing. Everyone commented on how much work, and how many hours, it must have taken to pull everything together.
As for the actual Prom, I'm told that the venue was awesome and the DJ, student Wes Saunders, was of professional quality and knew exactly what music to play. The dance floor, I understand, was rocking!
