SENIORS - Renaissance Cord Application
Get ready to glow, WHS! Join us this Friday, March 27th, for Hope Lights the Way, a totally FREE neon glow party sponsored by Hope Squad. Kick off the night at 7:00 PM by visiting our information booths—doing so enters you into exciting prize drawings held throughout the event. From 7:00 to 10:00 PM, the energy stays high with glow bracelets, necklaces, sunglasses and glow in the dark markers along with free popcorn, soda, cornhole, velcro axe throwing, and a 360 photo booth to capture the night. Then, at 8:00 PM, DJ Pride takes over the decks to keep the dance floor moving until 10:00 PM. Everything is free, so wear your brightest neon and meet us at the Harbor doors for an unforgettable night!
