Together, this committeebecomes the foundation of prom and is incharge of all decisions regarding prom. A promcommittee can eventually be split up into subcommitteesto help make all aspects of prommore manageable.Brainstorm ideasGet together and brainstorm ideas. Fund-raisersare always a good cushion—they can be atime to have fun and bond as a council, as wellas provide a way to help pay for prom. In thebeginning, it is important to consider a plethoraof theme ideas, all with an open mind.Investigate ideasDevelop more than one theme idea; don’tdecide the most important part of prom on awhim. After these ideas have been somewhatdeveloped, carefully contemplate each themeidea and begin to make a final decision.Choose theme and locationBefore making a final decision on the theme,gather a group of prom committee membersand visit all possible prom locations. Narrowdown and determine where prom will beheld, then vote on a final theme. The locationcould influence the theme decision. Once thetheme has been decided, discuss decorations,refreshments, party favors, tickets, and prices.Also, be prepared to hire a photographer and DJin the near future. This is where sub-committeeswill start to become vital.Address the detailsBe organized in attacking the specifics, in eachand every stage of the overall process. Makesure everything is scheduled to get done… ontime! Remember to communicate; let otherprom committee members know how plansare progressing. Take things as they come, beprepared to overcome any obstacles, and havefun with the making of prom!RegisterAdvertisements removedFor local ads, see print version
