Editor, The Times:
The Clearwater Secondary School 2012 Graduating Class wishes to thank all of the local businesses, organizations, community members, and parents that supported us through donations, fundraising, and assistance this year. Graduates enjoyed a memorable Prom and Dry Grad on June 2-3 because of the generosity of our community!
With the money that we raised, we were able to have an amazing Prom with a professional DJ in a beautifully decorated gym. Our theme was "Mardi Gras," so we turned the gym into a wonderful masquerade ballroom with oversized masks and green, gold, and purple balloons.
Furthermore, the grad parents planned a fantastic Dry-Grad trip to Kelowna, which many students attended. Activities included a hypnotist presentation, go-karting, mini-golfing, and swimming!
Dry Grad started immediately after prom, which meant that the majority of students enjoyed an alcohol-free celebration. Therefore, your contributions not only benefited our Prom and Dry-Grad celebrations; they ensured the safety of the grads and other youth. Thank-you!
The Graduating Class of 2012
