Walking into the Harborview Center brought smiles to the junior’s and senior’s faces who attended the Prom of 2009. The setting was perfect. Strolling through Central Park to get on the dance floor made it seem like Clearwater got a real taste of The Big Apple. Everyone was dressed to impress. Girls with long elegant dresses and guys suited up in freshly pressed tuxedos conversed with each other and complemented the different dress styles. Students opened the grand doors to the Harborview Center to glide up the escalators and walk past the statue of liberty to enter the gorgeous set up that awaited them. “The set up was amazing,” said junior Lindsay Zallis. Once all the students entered the room the real fun began. The DJ cranked the music up, the base shook the walls, then shoes flew under the tables as the students took to

the dance floor. There was a huge screen mounted near DJ Matos that displayed the music videos. As the DJ transitioned from hip-hop to rock songs, students one by one left the dance floor to sit down, relax and devour some delicious pizza, wings and chocolate covered strawberries. To keep everyone dancing the DJ played mostly upbeat

music. “The chocolate fountain was tasty,” said junior Jeremy Brown. The dancing, laughing and constant pictures that were taken will always be cherished. But the one

memory that Melanie Rosenthal and Bryce Foushee will never forget is being crowned king and queen of the 2009 prom. Unlike last year’s prom, the problems with drinking, drugs and fighting subsided in this year’s prom which was a successful night to remember. Walking out of the prom, teachers from left and right were telling students to be safe as students were grabbing their black gift bags. The gift bags contained a memorable picture frame with a New York skyline background and a jelly-filled wine glass candle. “I’m glad that my senior prom went really well,” said senior Francesca Negrillo. With the Harborview Center being torn down later this year, junior class advisor, Mrs. Karen Mallory is already looking into places such as, The Kapok Tree or The Coliseum, for next year’s prom. So get out your sharpies and mark your calendars for Friday, May 14th 2010.
