A Thank You note from one of our Senior Prom attendees:
I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to you and all your staff, for the opportunity to enjoy myself at the Seniors Prom Blast from the Past. I had a blast! I thought I was old and blind and could never have such a wonderful time - but I was wrong!
The whole Seniors Prom program was very well done and carefully planned and carried out, starting with shopping trips, dance lessons and cultural night. At these events I met other SHINE participants, Guide Dog staff and volunteers.
On the big night at the Pagoda, I was lucky to have a blind date (Paulette Watson) with seventeen years experience as a dance teacher. She guided my hands through several dances and taught me the jitterbug, electric slide, etc. The music was great. It brought back memories of happy days.
The dinner was delicious and the fish was especially excellent. The Kona coffee was very good and the servers were extra helpful and attentive.
Thank you for all the phone blasts with details and reminders, and the Handivan coupons to cover the trip to and from the Pagoda. You thought of everything, and then some - what a surprise to be one of the "enthusiastic dancers" recognized at the end of the program.
Hopefully we can do it again next year. Sign me up! ... See more
