PARENTS PRESERVE MEMORIES IN LUE OF HARD TIMES FOR 2010 GRADUATES
It’s about to happen across the state. Graduation time is near, excitement, high hopes and yes looking forward to the future in spite or the gloomy economics. Parents and students have the same dreams as those of previous years. This should be that moment in time to be celebrated; remembered and rewarded it’s a time of tradition a right of passage moving from childhood into the adult world. As part of that transition parents of high school seniors in schools large and small across Michigan come together to organize a great send off in safe alcohol free celebrations for their graduates. With names like Grad Bash! Senior Celebration! Senior All Night Party! You can bet this is no small event or small undertaking. Done in a variety of ways from renting hall, YMCA’s and campus field houses to transforming the schools them self into one big dreamland decorated from floor to ceiling hallway after hallway I would mention more of their creative ideas but the events theme and location are kept a secrete to add to the excitement. It takes a committed group that starts planning the how, what and where of these events even before the school year begin. And the HOW are we going to raise funds has been a bit harder for obvious reasons this year yet they preserver and through inventive thinking a lot of self sacrificing putting together tail gate parties, father daughter dances, poker games, carnivals, raffles, 50/50s car washes, cakes, cookie, flower and sub sales recruiting local companies and stores to invest in their future customers. They are our future too. Let’s encourage these young people the graduates of 2009
help them celebrate this big event in their life by supporting the local Graduation Celebration.
Call your hometown high school to what you can contribute.
