FEELING YOUNG AGAIN/SENIOR-SENIOR DANCE
Friday night (March 5th) in New Smyrna Beach High School’s cafeteria, the class of 2010 seniors hosted a dance. Nothing out of the ordinary for a high school to have a dance on their campus, but this dance was very different. It was a SENIOR - SENIOR DANCE. Translation: The senior students invited senior citizens to join them for an evening full of dancing, live entertainment, refreshments and photos.
This service project was a way to give back to the community that is beloved in New Smyrna Beach, the “Young At Heart” senior citizens including grandparents, church members, co-workers and friends. The senior class president, Sydney Kendricks, welcomed the elderly to this young and old party. The music selections spanned over 60 years and everyone enjoyed the collection chosen by Peri Kose and the disc jockey was Chris Atwell, both members of
the steering committee.
The Electric Slide filled the dance floor as young and old danced simultaneously to the crowd pleasing song.
Live entertainment was also provided, featuring singing and guitar playing by Justin Watson, Candice Cuchetti and Alex Kinsey.
Kaylee Richmond and Amanda Bartlett were student photographers that took pictures and printed them out during the evening, providing everyone with a memento of the dance.
The event was advertised on flyers that were distributed around town. There was not a huge crowd, but everyone that attended had a wonderful time. As the dance was winding down and people were beginning to leave, one woman was heard saying, “That made me feel young again!”
