(Jan. 19, 2017) Stephen Decatur High School’s After-Prom event will be held on May 13, from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m.
This free event for juniors and seniors of SDHS and their dates will be held at the Berlin high school and take place in the cafeteria, gyms and numerous hallways. This year’s theme is “Under The Big Top.”
After-Prom keeps teens safe on prom night. Junior and senior students do not have to attend prom to come to the After-Prom event, which will feature huge inflatables, tons of games, a simulated casino, fake-tattoo artist, money grab machine, music, photo ops and trivia.
Feeding more than 500 hungry teenagers for five hours takes an enormous amount of food, so there will be a buffet open all night. It will include an array of food donated by area restaurants including pizza, sandwiches, chips, veggies and dip, along with an ice cream sundae bar, donuts and coffee. Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) will provide frozen “mocktails.”
With almost 150 volunteers, concerned parents and the generous donations from parents and community businesses, this event has been offered every year since 1995.
After-Prom costs between $15,000 and $20,000 to implement each year. It is not funded by the Board of Education or the school. Any monetary donations from parents, businesses and community groups would be greatly appreciated and can be mailed to: Stephen Decatur High School, 9913 Seahawk Rd., Berlin, Maryland 21811 to the attention of After-Prom with “After-Prom” in the memo.
Donations of prizes or food from businesses are also welcome. Email sdhsap@gmail.com. Contributors will be recognized in local newspaper ads.
Volunteers are still needed. With Mother’s Day and Relay For Life sharing the weekend of May 13, the volunteer pool is a little thin. For more information, find “Stephen Decatur High After Prom” on Facebook or email sdhsap@gmail.com.
