Cheering on the Home Team
Students met over the summer to choose a theme suited for both outdoors and indoors, and ended up with the theme “Let's GLOW Crazy.”
“The student council tried to go out of their way to make it extra special,” Boland said. “They were excited about the glow theme, and we're going to have all sorts of different lighting structures and blacklights. The Student Council kids really wanted it to be something special for their classmates.”
Even with the outdoor component, some portions remained as they were from previous years.
“A lot of the other planning stuff was still kind of the same,” Boland said. “There were a couple of added things, like coming up with rain plans in terms of the weather turning out in our favor, but the overall process has been pretty similar.”
Boland said so far, ticket sales have been going well, and students seem enthused about the opportunity to participate.
“I think they are excited, especially some of the upperclassmen,” she said. “The past couple years, this is all they've really known as their high school experience is all of the COVID circumstances. To be able to have a dance and hang out with their friends, and for it to be done in a safe way, I think they're excited.”
