No Prom for the Homeless-
May 8, 2009 7-11:30pm:
This year, instead of running the Spring Break Social at D-Y we are going to help out the D-Y, Harwich, Chatham and CCA Human Right's Groups in the planning of their dance at the Chatham Community Center. We donated funds our funds from the Spring Break Social to this event two years ago when it benefited aid efforts in Darfur, Sudan. This year, we will continue our support of the Human Rights Groups by gathering funds, working the dance and promoting the event. If anyone has any ideas regarding how to raise funds etc. bring your ideas up in a meeting. The Dance as it stands now will have a moon-bounce, cash grab, DJ, rock band, super smash brothers, guitar hero, a velco wall, an obstacle course and texas hold 'em. The whole idea of the dance is that high school students (not just Juniors and Seniors) could attend this dance for the $20 ticket charge, and make an additional donation to this non-profit organization as an alternative to spending hundreds of dollars on a prom ticket, tux and dress. However, going to No Prom for the Homeless in no way means that you can't or shouldn't go to your Prom, it's just the novel idea of the event. Talk it up and promote this dance, it's a really good opportunity for us to aid the homeless shelters here on Cape (something we've already been doing this winter) while meeting other kids from high schools across the Cape. A lot of people went to the last No Prom and it turned out to be a huge success, this one should be no different.
