James River High School After Prom says Thanks!
The James River High School After Prom celebration returned for 2021/2022 after a 3 year hiatus. The event ran from 12:15am to 2:30am on Sunday April 30th. 184 students and guests attended the event. Festivities included multiple inflatables, a mechanical bull, cornhole, laser tag, karaoke and a rock climbing wall plus food and drinks. Everyone earned tickets for participating and were able to attend the “store” to pick out prizes ranging from gift cards, coolers, art supplies, cash and so much more. At the end of the event each Senior was awarded a Senior Gift that ranged from gift cards, mini refrigerators, tablets, TVs and more along with a final drawing for a kayak, life jacket and paddles. All students/guests who stayed until the end received their admission fee of $10 back making the event 100% free.
None of this would have been possible without the amazing support of our community sponsors. It takes a village to raise a child – Thank you to all our sponsors/donors:
