Although exhausted, teachers, staff and volunteers shared that they thoroughly enjoyed seeing their students have a good time during their after prom event. 

 

This year, their trek took them to the Lee-Hi Bowling Lanes before heading over to Thunder Valley for the rest of the evening. 

 

After their prom in Salem, 57 students, including Craig County High School juniors, seniors and their guests left the school at approximately 11:15 p.m. for a couple of hours of bowling. 

 

After that, Thunder Valley was a hit, as the students played laser tag, drove the go-karts, played arcade games and putt-putt until after 4 a.m., so they could get back to the school at 5:15 a.m. 

 

“There were lots of games and giveaways this year throughout the night,” shared Karen Jones, a teacher. 

 

They played Minute to Win it and had the annual tug of war with the face off of the juniors verses the senior class. 

 

Also, there were many gift certificates that were donated from businesses and gift cards. 

 

At the end of the night, they had the grand prize drawings. Only juniors and seniors were eligible for these drawings and some prizes were for seniors only. 

 

The grand prize winners were:

  • Chase Matthew concert tickets – Stephanie Freese
  • Gabby Barrett concert tickets – Emmie Radford
  • Samsung watch – Colton Mabes
  • Apple watch – Eliza Muncey
  • $250 Grand Furniture gift card – Katie Day
  • Smart TV – Lily Hutchinson
  • $100 Visa gift cards (2) – Ava Greenway and Randalyn Taylor
  • Camping gift set – Ava Greenway
  • Air pods – Tyler Fitzpatrick
  • PlayStation 5 – Tyler Huffman (this was the most-desired gift of the evening)

Seniors only prizes:

  • VR headset – Skyler Rodriguez
  • $300 cash prize – Lexxy Brookman
  • iPad – Sara Jones
  • iPhone – Isac Haga
  • Kayak – Adam Charles

 

Jones added that all the students were given free shirts, as well as goody bags that contained gift cards, candy, Chapstick and other “cool” items. 

 

To add to the fun, Jones said that their school buses were decorated according to the theme – checkered flags, bowling pins, streamers and etc. 

 

“NONE of this would have been possible without the generous donations of our sponsors, the individuals and businesses from our county, and surrounding areas,” Jones said. 

 

“We would like to thank these wonderful sponsors for making our After-Prom such a great success!” she added.
