Each year we have our gala senior banquet at the beautiful Venetian Shores Catering Hall in Lindenhurst. It's right off the water so the sunsets are gorgeous and the breeze is wonderful. It has a gazebo for taking outdoor shots and overlooks the Great South Bay.
Inside the air-conditioners are cranked up because the DJ has his rig set up and the music is about to flow. The food is great and the service is excellent. All of the students arrive in formal wear and it is such a change seeing them like that when you are so used to them in their school uniforms.
The night starts off slow as the guests arrive and take pictures while enjoying the cocktail hour. Delicious fruity concoctions are poured over the hum of the blenders and everyone settles in for a great night. Once dinner is served the music kicks in and the dance floor begins to populate. The students come ready to celebrate the conclusion of 12 years of education and are looking forward to college.
At the end of the night we crown the homecoming King and Queen who were voted for by the student body weeks before. Time for a few more dances, coffee and cake and many students then continue with their after-party arrangements off site. It's a night to remember forever!
Grace and Peace,
Ed
