Princeton High School Parents Thank Supporters for Safe Post Prom Event

To the Editor:

This year’s Post Prom event at Princeton High School was a smashing success thanks to the hard work of over 50 volunteers, and the generosity of the Princeton and Cranbury communities. The Princeton High School PTO would like to thank those businesses and organizations that helped provide a memorable experience to our juniors and seniors and their guests. This is the 31st year that the event has been held with the intention of providing a safe and enjoyable substance-free post prom night. This year’s event, “Surf’s Up,” hosted roughly 500 students at Princeton High School, with food, activities, and door prizes. The high school gym, hallways, and auditorium foyer were literally transformed into “Surf City,” an environment that received rave reviews from the students.

The Post Prom Event is funded entirely through private donations and community organizations. This year’s generous sponsors included Cranbury Municipal Alliance, Corner House, Prudential Insurance Company, ARI Products, Alliance Homes, Princeton Borough PBA No. 130, Hamilton Jewelers, Long Motor Volvo Company of Princeton, Cranbury School PTO, Cranbury Boy Scouts, Cranbury Girl Scouts, and Cranbury Lions.

Other generous donations were made in the food, services, and prize areas, from Barnes and Noble, Chazmatazz, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Forest Jewelers, Hinkson’s, Hoagie Haven, Iano’s Rosticerra, Jake’s on Nassau, Kopp’s Cycle, Lisa Jones, Papery, P.J.’s Pancake House, PNC Bank, Record Exchange, Ricky’s Candy, Cones and Chaos, Ten Thousand Villages, Pizza Star, Target, Best Buy, Sunglass Hut, Lenscrafters, Eastern Mountain Sports, Mystique Hair Salon, Regal Movie Theater, and UA Movies at Market Fair.

The students were thrilled with their selection of over 80 door prizes including items like a flat screen TV, surfboard, Ipod, and microwave ovens. As co-presidents of the Princeton High School PTO, we would like to thank everyone who once again provided a safe post prom tradition for our students.
