Golden Grooves: Senior Prom Lights Up Belpre Senior Center
June 12, 2024
With age comes wisdom and better dance moves. This was exhibited on June 6th at the Senior Prom held at the Belpre Senior Center. Waterview Pointe, Amedisys Hospice, and the Senior Center came together to host such a fun and jubilant event. With approximately 70 seniors in attendance, they walked the red carpet, enjoyed a charcuterie-style dessert table, prom punch, danced to a variety of music, and of course, there was a king and queen crowning.
The Senior Prom 2024 King was 91-year-old Troxil Trembly and the Queen was 98-year-old Betty Hutchinson. It was such a heartwarming experience when Ms. Betty was named queen, expressing,
“Thank you. I was not expecting this,” causing many to tear up at the sheer amount of joy. Another participant stated that this was one of the best experiences of her life. There are truly no words to describe how amazing this event was. It was an event to be remembered, and we are already looking forward to next year's prom!
We want to send a special thanks to Courtney Wentz Photography, who graciously donated her time to take professional pictures of the event and make all the seniors feel special. Also, a big thanks to The Flower Daddy Shop in Belpre for donating the beautiful bouquet arrangement for our beautiful queen!
