Post Prom Announcement-April 11

The Junior Parent Post-Prom Committee is excited to share plans for an extended night of entertainment following the dance! After prom ends, students will have time to change clothes and board a chartered bus for a safe and fun trip to Sky Zone in Sioux Falls. We anticipate arrival time in Sioux Falls at 1 am, with a return to Forestburg by 5am. 

At Sky Zone, students can enjoy a variety of attractions such as Ultimate Dodgeball, Foam Zone, SkySlam, Zip Line, and more. We’ll also provide food and drinks so everyone can refuel while having a blast. 

Important: All Sanborn Central students and their dates who plan to attend must complete an online waiver before participating. Please visit Sky Zone Sioux Falls Waiver to fill it out now, so you don’t forget!

Sanborn Central school also requires a waiver to be completed. This will be added to the blog at a later date.

We hope the high school students are ready to make memories this April! If you have questions you can reach out to Jen Fouberg or Steph Edwards.
