Sadie Hawkins Dance Nov. 4 Preliminary Information

This is to let you know that we’re on schedule right now for the Friday, November 4 Sadie Hawkins dance, at Bunker Park Stables, in Andover. Fifteen buses have been ordered from MPS Transportation; a photographer will be on-site; a catering company has agreed to serve food that night and we have a DJ and a possible caller for the dance.

Based on the figures we will need 30 parent chaperones that evening, with two adults riding each bus and then walking the grounds near the barn and stables. We will also have one uniformed Anoka County deputy present and at least three or four SW teachers. Buses are expected to leave Southwest at 6 pm and will return by 11 pm; at least one bus will pick up and return students to north Minneapolis.

We are continuing to discuss what is appropriate student behavior for this dance, on the dance floor and elsewhere, and how best to deal with students who’re unprepared to meet such norms. No less important is our attempt to drum up school-wide enthusiasm and support for this event, which remains the best annual fundraiser for National Honor Society.

If you are able to chaperone please contact Mr. Robert Rees, NHS so-advisor 692-0051
