how to have the best night ever: The Lake Style
what’s up with the venue? what you need to know about infinity park event center Prom is at the Infinity Park Event Center and it’s gonna be amazing! The center is located in Glendale, just minutes outside of Denver. As a new building, it has a fresh, technological vibe. Not to mention, it’s classy! There are 12 LCD projectors and 360 degree screens in the 8,600-square-foot ballroom. They’re theme customizable, so they can show multiple images and switch from looks, images and videos. The audio is also fantastic with house sound and an audio mixer that will play some great music. Having been open for only five years, Infinity Park Event Center has attracted well-recognized businesses such as Whole Foods, American Crew and Wells Fargo, who have come back year after year for events. The center hosts proms, galas, quinceaneras, mitzvahs, weddings, conferences, etc. It provides indoor and outdoor spaces along with quality catering. This year’s prom theme is “Cirque du Soleil: The Performance of a Lifetime.” While Student Council has kept plans under top secret security, they have revealed that they have several tricks up their sleeve for the night.

All students are required to wear shoes and be sober at prom... very sober.
for the fellas: Running late? Don’t just show up a little late. Make a grand entrance and make sure everyone knows: the party has arrived when you have.
Feeling lazy the morning after the dance? If you went to sleep, stay in bed. Don’t move. We’ll bring you some coffee. If you didn’t go to sleep, find the nearest Village Inn. ASAP.
Too shy to ask that hottie to dance? Don’t be. Pretend you’re prince charming for a night and sweep her off her feet because you have nothing to lose.
Need tips on how to dress? Watch 007 and go all out. Pretend you’re James Bond. Ladies love James Bond.
and for the ladies: No date? Don’t be sad about it, go rock the floor. Imagine you’re in a Beyonce music video. Get iiiiit.
& for the underclassmen: 5 things to do instead of being sad about not going to prom
1.
dress up and go out to dinner, anyways.
2.
play just dance in your basement. Practice makes perfect!
Don’t want to splurge at dinner?
3.
have a photoshoot with friends at the park.
Well, you should. Forget salads! Order yourself some freaking filet mignon. YOLO on everything.
4. 5.
watch the move “prom night.”
Drama getting you down? You spent a long time on your makeup - don’t you dare cry it all off. Hug it out. You only get two proms in your life. Don’t waste yours fighting over petty issues.
Is your updo falling out on the dance floor? It wasn’t very comfortable, anyways. Take out all 20 bobby pins and rock the bedhead look.
have a spa night at home with face masks & pedicures, all the good stuff.
soooo, how do we get teachers’ prom to infinity park? horror stories
vasquez blvd. exit only
co blvd. exit
only
10 miles
eastbound
The event center is about 30 minutes from the school. Head onto Highway 36 going East for about 10 miles, then merge onto Vasquez Boulevard, and then onto Colorado Boulevard. Take a left at Kentucky Avenue, which is just after Ohio Avenue. If you’ve reached East Tennessee Avenue, you went about a block too far. The Event Center will be on the right. If you hit Kentucky Circle, take a U-turn and head back a block to get to the event center.
36 kentucky ave.
aaaand you made it! have a wonderful night & be safe.
“At after prom, my date and my friend’s date went face to face sumo wrestling in the big fat suits, and my date got knocked out. She hit her head right on the concrete, and I took her to the hospital. Her dad thought that I had gotten drunk and crashed our car or something, and threatened me right in the waiting room. We had been dating for three months, and I never got to talk to her again after that.” - Mr. John Moriarty “I was asked by this girl, Tina...We started to hang out, and when we did, she would read me really dark weird poetry... I decided that she wasn’t really what I wanted, so I broke it off with her. She came to school the next day with a shaved head.” - Mr. Ben Reed “I did not participate in--but witnessed--Redneck Bowling at my senior prom. You know, when four rednecks stand in a circle, and in the middle one swings one around by the arms, and, knocks the other ones over.” - Mr. Jeremiah “CoCo” Coraggio “I remember there was this really hot guy at my school, that everyone wanted to go with. But he waited until like five days before to ask anyone. So, everyone he asked already had a date. I remember everyone was in shock, like ‘he couldn’t get a date?’. He ended up taking his neighbor.” - Ms. Christy Hayashi “My dad let me borrow his Alfa Romeo Spider (a super nice muscle car). My high school graduating class was super small, only 84 kids. On the way to after prom, there was a rock sitting in the middle of the road, and I ran straight over it. It damaged the oil pan, just ripped the bottom of the car apart. Ended up being $800 in damage. I think my dad knew I didn’t have the money, and I wasn’t drunk or reckless or anything-so he payed for it.” - Mr. Trip Sargeant “Uhm... my sad story is pretty short. I went with this girl, and she ended up leaving with someone else.” - Social Studies student teacher Mr. Probst
need last minute makeup ideas? peacock eyes Grab a baked nude eyeshadow and apply it above your crease. Highlight it with a darker shimmery eyeshadow. Apply a dark green eyeshadow in the crease. Use a turquoise eyeshadow (this is Edgy Emerald color tattoo) below crease. Outline the outer edges of the turquoise eyeshadow with dark brown and blend to tone the look. Swipe a bright purple eyeshadow along the outer half of your eye, keeping it below the crease. Sweep dark brown eyeshadow along your crease and blend it. Use the turquoise shadow beneath your lower inner lash line a little past your pupil. Extend the purple eyeshadow from the turquoise to the outer edge of your eye. Apply liquid black eyeliner along your top lash line and wing it out to create a cateye. Add the liner to the very edge of your lower eye beneath your lashes and have it meet with the upper wing (it should look triangular). Follow the top of the black with a gold eyeliner or eyeshadow (this is Bold Gold color tattoo). Apply black eyeliner along your upper and lower waterlines. If you want to use fake eyelashes, place adhesive lightly onto the fake eyelash and apply closest to upper lashes as possible. Curl Lashes and apply mascara. Voila!
