Last week was Key Club’s production of the Prom Fashion Show, a fundraiser that goes toward the American Cancer Society. I had the privilege to take part in this wonderful event, and many other peers of Whitman Hanson as well. The participants were in for a whirlwind of a day filled with fun, makeup, and hairspray.
The premise of the Prom Fashion Show is to put on an entertaining event to raise money for an incredible cause. Boys and Girls of Whitman Hanson come together and put on a show not only promoting prom season, but promoting this good cause as well. “I thought it would be fun to dress up and spend time with my friends” says Junior, Cathryn Johnson. The boys and girls got the chance to wear beautiful dresses and sharp tuxedos and model them on stage. “We got to have a good time while giving back to a good cause,” stated Maicey Bowman.
Now, what did it take to put on this successful show? The girls and boys were assigned to a certain shop to find the apparel that they were to wear the night of the show. From there, rehearsals for the show came into play. From firsthand experience, the participants had to learn how to do the runway walk, with our partners. The night of the show became before we all knew it, “It was nerve wracking,” exclaims Mandy Lishman, Right after school, the girls went straight into the process of hair and makeup. Soon after, the boys came along to start rehearsing the show before it went on. The dresses and tuxedos came, and we were all immediately sent to get ready. “It was very hectic and everyone was running around, but in the end it all came together nicely,” concludes Cathryn Johnson.
The Prom Fashion Show was a fun event to be apart of. Where we all get to step out of our comfort zones and have some fun to support an astounding cause. Juniors next year definitely should consider being apart of this event, for it is an amazing environment, where you get that one night to be a star.
