Marshwood Class of 2016 8th Grade Social “An Evening in Paris”
When: Friday, May 4th, 2012 Time: 7:00pm-10:00pm Where: The Regatta Room,
Eliot, ME Tickets: $20 per person
It has been a long standing tradition at Marshwood to end the 8th grade school
year with a semi-formal dance. We hope that all of the 8th grade students will
attend this memorable event with their friends. The students voted on “An
Evening in Paris” as their theme this year. This event is school sanctioned,
chaperoned, and all school attendance rules are strictly enforced to make this
a fun and safe event for everyone.
Please Remember: NO GOWNS OR TUXEDOS, NO LIMOS, AND NO FLOWERS. ONLY MARSHWOOD
STUDENTS MAY ATTEND THIS EVENT.
ALL Students must dress and dance appropriately. There will be a check-in and
check- out process for all students the night of the social. No-one will be
allowed to come and go during the event.
Signed permission slips will be required to purchase a ticket. Tickets must be
purchased in advance at school only, and students will need a ticket to attend
the social. Permission slips will go home in the near future. Look for signs
at school for ticket sale dates. The price of your ticket will include a Class
of 2016 commemorative gift, as well as an appetizer buffet, beverages, dessert
and dancing!
