GUIDELINES:
In order to ensure that the dance is comfortable and safe for everyone, we have included the following guidelines for the behavior, etiquette, and attire of attendees.

1. Stay within established boundaries.  Refrain from wandering around outside the facility.  If you need something from your vehicle, a chaperone will escort you.  If you are 18, you may leave before the end of the dance, but you will only be allowed back into the dance at the discretion of the chaperones.  If you are under 18, you may leave early ONLY if your parent/guardian informs the committee,nprior to dance night, that you have their permission to leave early.

2.  No public displays of affection to include kissing, caressing or extended embracing, a person sitting on another’s lap, etc.

3.  Proper dance etiquette and behavior require that there is NO body against body, groping, or provocative movements.

4.  There will be no smoking, foul language, alcohol, drugs or weapons, including pocket knives.

5.    Attire:

 Ladies:

This dance is formal, and long gowns are encouraged, but not required.  Dresses must be tasteful.  This means: no skin-tight or see-through dresses, no cut-outs in the dresses, and no slits or hems more than just above the knees.  Necklines need to be tasteful, i.e. no cleavage showing.  Strapless dresses are allowed, but they must be cut in line with the armpits and may not dip down in the middle.  Elastic-top dresses must have shoulder straps.  Backs are to be mid-back.  Undergarments are to be worn under gown.  Please use your utmost discretion when selecting a gown to assure that it is tasteful and above reproach.  Maintaining the dress code throughout the evening is the responsibility of the attendees

Note about dresses:

For your benefit, please make sure that your dress stays "secure" when you jump up and down, wiggle, or do any other dance move.  Over the years we have watched our young ladies struggle to keep their dresses "in place" while trying to dance.  You will have a much more enjoyable evening if you are not fighting your dress all night.

Gentlemen:

This dance is a formal affair, but tuxedos are not mandatory.  We do expect you to come in with dress pants, a collared, button-up shirt and a tie.  Jackets are encouraged.
