Highlights of a Special Needs Prom - What a beautiful night!

We were so blessed to be able to participate a couple of weeks ago in a prom that our church threw for disabled and special needs folks.  It turns out that most of these people do not attend the proms of their own high schools for many reasons, and miss out on this opportunity that so many take for granted.  Events like these is just one reason that I absolutely love my church.
It was such a special night and they really made it an amazing event.  There was a sit down plated dinner for over 140 guests plus their chaperones, (all chicken was donated by Chick Fil A, way to go once again guys!), and catered by a gal at the church for free.  The tables were decorated beautifully, and no details were left out.  There were stations set up to help the ladies with their hair and makeup and jewelry, and a red carpet for them to walk in on, with a crowd of loving people cheering them on.   After the dinner was dancing and games set up, and it really seemed that everyone had a blast!   My two daughters came and helped to man the backup camera and swapped off the other working so hard in the kitchen to plate dinners and clean, I was so proud of them.  My husband chaperoned and had a blast himself dancing and playing games.
This was truly a night to remember, Colorado Community Church, you are doing wonderful things!!
