The Apex High Prom Twitter account announced that the 2015 prom theme will be “Polynesian Paradise.” Prom will be held May 2 at the Embassy Suites in Cary, from 8 p.m. to midnight.

“The reason we chose Polynesian Paradise is because it is a super fun theme with a bunch of really awesome decorations,” said senior prom committee member, Jennifer Friedler. “I feel like it pleases most people because who doesn't want to go to like a luau?”

The committee has announced there will be free, unlimited snowballs provided by Pelican’s Snoballs. Students will also be able to send their music requests to the DJ via text message.


“There are more secrets and really exciting things that are happening that I’m not allowed to tell you right now because you’ll have to go to prom and figure those things out,” said Friedler. “I’m really excited for it and everyone else should be too.”

To get people excited, the committee is sponsoring a ‘promposal’ contest on Twitter. Couples can e-mail a photo of their promposal to apexhighprom2015@gmail.com. The photograph will then be posted to the @ApexProm Twitter. The photo that receives the most favorites will win two free tickets to prom. The contest ends April 10.

Students can order tickets online for $40 per ticket plus a 4% convenience fee from March 23 to April 17. Ticket pick up will be April 20 to 24 during lunches and after school until 3 p.m. If you did not order online, tickets may be purchased at this time for $50 per ticket.
