It’s looking like that time of year again. Christmas has ended, summer vacation is a long way off, and the juniors have locked themselves in Mrs. Brower’s room for that past few lunch periods. Its Prom season. It’s the most secretive of times when seniors usually need spy equipment just to discover any information about the event.  But finally Mrs. Brower has shared all there is to know about the 2010 Prom.

This year’s Prom will be held in Springfield’s Oasis Convention center on April 10^th, with buses leaving the school by about five that evening. The theme for this year’s Prom is “Meet Me at the Tower,” as in Eiffel Tower. The Convention Center hosts a much larger ballroom than last years, with the capacity to hold over 700 people. Prom attendants will be enjoying a catered meal from the convention center’s on-site restaurant Fire and Ice. When the clock strikes midnight, students will load back onto the buses and head for Project Prom, to be held at either the Hollister YMCA like last year or possibly the Ozark Community Center.

Mrs. Brower also had information on tickets and prom dresses; the tickets are to be $35, like last year, and will be on sale the week before and after Spring Break. Students wishing to rent a dress can stop by Mrs. Brower’s room at anytime to pick one up.

Another prom related item is the contest at StumpsParty.com, where you can go and vote for your school to win money for prom. There are three grand prize winners, though the winner of each state (Willow currently leads Missouri) receives $1000 for decorations, souvenirs, and other party items.

“I am really excited about the new location,” said Mrs. Brower. “This year’s committee has great ideas to help make this one of the best proms yet.”

Mrs. Brower has a nice selection of formal dresses to choose from
