Prom dares seniors to ‘step into the legend’ as they experience a Monte-Carlo casino night

Seniors and other dance attendees fill the room in various styles, colors, and types of prom wear. Outfits varyed from formal JROTC uniforms, suits, tuxes and cowboy hats, dresses, and so much more.

The day has come for seniors to start getting ready for the big day. On May 17th Prom for James Bowie High School was held at the Palmer Event Center.
Senior Madi Hacking was well prepared for this big event coming up.

 
“Getting my dress was actually not as hard as I thought, my grandma works at a formal wear store in Utah that sells modest dresses and since they are so hard to come by in stores here she kindly sent us some,” Hacking said. “We’ve actually accumulated quite a collection of formal dresses, some donated by various people. We love to lend them out to anyone looking for a beautiful, more modest dress. When my grandma sent the blue dress I wore I instantly fell in love with it and saved it for my senior prom.”

 
According to Hacking, her group of friends got at her house to take pictures but then got to the actual event around 9 p.m. She got escorted to prom by her prom date Trevor Oldham.
“As far as I know the best part about this prom was the opportunity for everyone to dress up and feel special for one night and to just have fun as a senior class,” Hacking said.
They all arrived at the Palmer Event Center in their Camero limo.

 
“Something that I thought was innovative and unique at Prom was the opportunity to create a flip book that transformed a seven second video into a print out booklet that you could flip to see the movements. Trevor and I had fun doing some swing dances moves for ours,” Hacking explained.
Later on that night at prom, the king and queen were announced. Zach Cootes ended up winning for Prom King and Aubrey Goodwin won Prom Queen.

 
At the end of they day everyone went home remembering that special night. “The only thing I would change is making the night last longer,” Hacking said.
