The Dancing Games: Party at the Capitol

Last Friday, May 9, CCHS held prom at the TPC Golf Course, with an all-new Hunger Games theme. The majority of the school attended, and it was a fun time. The food served was chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, salad, and rolls, with marble cake for dessert. After the meal, two juniors, Nick Bonnema and Sara Shields, read the senior wills and testaments, which were funny and enjoyable, lightening the mood. As soon as those were finished, most people were ready to dance. Halfway through the dance, the two tributes for the dance-off from each advisory entered the dance floor and performed their dances. It was a close match, but eventually Matt Johnson and Maddie Vande Kamp won the games. Mark Whitcomb, a sophomore, says, “Two memorable events from prom was the dance competition and Jeremiah’s song.”Many of the freshman attended, and enjoyed their first prom. Anna Smith, a freshman, says, “Being a freshman, I think that was great how they tried to make it memorable for us. It was a great first time.” Anna Bankes, a senior, says, “As my first[and last]prom, I liked it.” We hope the seniors all have great memories from their last prom as the year draws to a close.
