Masks, Chocolate and Comedy

On May 17, Freedom’s prom kicked off. The theme for this year was Midnight Masquerade.
“I know everyone was asking for this as the theme,” Junior Ally Wolf said.
Grand March was held at 7 p.m. in the auditorium, displaying all of the students attending prom.
Because the theme was masquerade, many students either purchased their own masks or used those provided to them when they arrived at the school.
“I should have bought a mask,” Senior Nick Jackman said.
When students arrived at the Marriott Hotel, music was already playing. Students waited until around 9:30 p.m. to eat, and then the activities started. There were balloon, caricature and tattoo artists, as well as a photo booth and a racetrack for students to entertain themselves with.
At midnight, a chocolate fountain was brought out for everyone to en-joy. Later on, the comical group the Cellar Dwellers performed for every-one. Many students and teachers were volunteered to help out with all of their comedy skits.
“I think that [the Cellar Dwellers] made a great impression on people who have never seen them before, and now those people will want to come see them more,” Senior Tippin Harkins said.
Overall, students had a great time.
“I hope they can top it next year,” Wolf said.
