I still remember the excitement of prom. I remember taking the time to find the perfect dress, do my hair, put my makeup on, and help my high school sweetheart find a matching tux. I also remember my family being there with me to take pictures out on the front lawn. Looking back, I realize how fortunate I was to have my family provide for me.
That's why I'm so excited for this Dress Drive at Patuxent High School. A prom can certainly be expensive... and it seems like it's much more than a dance today. It's a social event! There's hair, nails, makeup, shoes, jewelry, THE DRESS--wait there's more--dinner beforehand, and then the prom tickets themselves! Imagine what a little bit of giving back can do for someone? Let's work together to make the prom process a little bit easier for all involved--moms, daughters, friends, and sweethearts! I believe that every dress does have a story, but that it doesn't have to end with just a single event, rather it can grow more beautiful and special with each new wearer. |
