Fourth Sponsor Meeting

Last week, when I went to go see my sponsor, I received a bit of a surprise when I arrived there. The woman, whose seat I was occupying, finally came back to work after about two weeks of being M.I.A. Her name was Kristie Rearick, and she was the head of the "Prom" department. We were introduced, and Mr. Barna told me that Ms. Rearick would help me out if I needed it. However, the angle that I was going for, which was Prom Weekend, came to an end when Mr. Barna wanted me to start focusing on the cost angle of proms. He wanted me to find out the total costs of proms, and if proms were more a business instead of a fun thing. I was to come up with questions to ask and call a lady from the Delsea School District and ask her questions about ow Delsea's prom is, where it is located, how much did it cost them, how many tickets do they sell, etc. And surprisingly they were good questions and I received really good answers. I was told to also ask one of the people in charge of my prom and I decided on Hoopes because she is my first period teacher. And I had to ask a student about how much did/will they spend on prom, which includes hair, nails, transportation, dresses, shoes, tuxes, tickets, everything that comes with prom. I'm a little bit more excited to write this article each day.
