From the flashing bulbs of cameras on the red carpet and at the Hollywood sign to the packed dance floor of over 100 parishioners from all different decades, the Senior Prom was a roaring success! We had stories from partygoers that missed out their own Senior Prom due to being deployed for the Korean War, crowning both a youthful and experienced set of Kings and Queens, and a wonderful sit-down meal served by Friscos. This jointly sponsored event from the Men’s Club and the Youth Group was decked out by our Parish Youth, who spent all day building the Hollywood Hills and decorating the ballroom for this first-ever Saint John Senior Prom.
What a great night!!!!! We had a blast. Thank you so much for doing this and that wonderful youth group…those kids are just the greatest. Years ago I taught CCD in Pennsylvania and seeing those kids brought it all back. They are our future! – Liz Koplitz
And with dancing from the big bands of the 40’s, the jitterbug of the 50’s, the disco of the 70’s, and the electric slide, everyone got up and danced till the party was over. Thanks to all that made this event so successful, especially Ben and Teresa Weber, Gina Manfredi, Miguel Castillo, John Smith, Joe Lichwalla, Bob Lomicka, and Fred Rowe!
