UHS After Prom

noreply@blogger.com (CFPMS Webmaster) — Tue, 07 May 2013 00:32:00 +0000

The After Prom Committee at Unionville High School is proud to announce the return of After Prom to the newly renovated High School. Like many years before, parents and volunteers have been hard at work transforming the high school into a themed-oriented event. It is their goal to keep the students and community safe after prom. After Prom offers students a memorable opportunity to join friends in a safe & fun environment while providing activities, food and surprises. The event takes place “After Prom” on May 18th from 11pm to 5am.

Once again, to entice students to attend, Scott Honda of West Chester, PA, is generously donating a used car to one lucky student that registers and attends the After Prom event… and what student would pass up the chance to win a free car?

To follow the excitement, check them out on Twitter @UHSAP2013 and Facebook at UHS After Prom 2013.

If you are a Unionville HS parent and want to help. Its not too late. We still need volunteers for set up, to work the night of and take down. Please go to our sign up genius link: www.SignUpGenius.com/go/5080F4FA4A82EA13-steering/1753487
