After Prom A Success
By Kathy Fazio
On a normal Saturday night the Norwalk High School
gym is darl and quiet. That was not the case Saturday,
April 27. This evening, it was filled with 293 students
having a good time at After Prom. Sounds of music and
their laughter echoed throughout the halls. They had
many things to do-a game truck, lasertag, inflatables,
volleyball, a photobooth, a caricaturist and a DJ for
karaoke. Also, the students had plenty of food through-
out the evening. It ended with prizes and a hypnotist.
Then the students were treated to a pancake breakfast
at the fire station.

MANY parent s who volunteered their time to help deco-
rate, clean up or spend the night with us. Also those
