PHS plans winter semi-formal dance

by Chelsie Darrow

Pittsford is finally following tradition that many other schools have, and is hosting a Snow-Ball Dance of their own! Many girls have been anticipating dressing up and getting their hair and nails done for prom, but now they don’t have to wait until spring. With Mr. Hodos advising, Keely Sanders, Katie Fether, and Jade Smith are putting the dance together. They got the idea from a dance that Quincy schools do that is similar. The dance will be on January 24, but you must sign up and pay by December 19.

We have to have at least 30 people signed up in order to even have the dance. As of right now we have 21, so hopefully more of you sign up! The Snow-Ball Dance will go from 7:30 p.m. until 11:30 p.m. on Friday, January 24. There will be pictures at the dance available for the kids to buy. There will also be food and lots of dancing!

The dance is semi-formal, which means that girls have to wear dresses, and the guys wear khakis/dress pants and a nice shirt, or a suit—no jeans allowed for either gender! Sophomore Ashley Immel is down with this new dance. “Yes! I’m going to the Snow-Ball dance, to spend time with my friends!” Not everyone is so lucky though. “I can’t go because I am grounded,” stated junior Ryan Titus.

So overall, the dance looks to be a good time. If you have any questions about it, ask sophomore Keely Sanders. Get out there and sign up today so we can have the dance! We hope to make this Snow-Ball dance an annual thing if we can keep the ball rolling!
