Stretched limos, flowing gowns, and sleek suits.

That’s right, Firebaugh prom night is just around the corner and with that said prom nominations have been cast and has everyone on their toes waiting for the announcement of who our prom royalty for 2012 will be. Many ladies and gentlemen long for the queen and king title, advertising themselves on facebook so that their classmates nominate them. This year however, Firebaugh seniors set in motion a very special project, the “Charlene for queen” project. Most of us know Charlene and many agreed that if anyone deserved to win a crown it was her. Donations to buy her prom ticket were being taken as well; unfortunately Charlene was not interested in attending prom or being queen. Although the project did not reach its goal, the thought and effort is one that Charlene is sure to appreciate. This means for all you ladies who wanted to be queen you still have a chance to represent Firebaugh!

The crowning of a king and queen is the highlight of prom, and to win represents an enormous honor. To be a queen or king is more than just rocking a crown; it’s a title that means out of the entire senior class you represent Firebaugh best, whether it’s because of charisma, athleticism, or academic achievement. The winner leaves with the knowledge that his/her classmates appreciate what he/she has done in Firebaugh. After nominations are announced the race for Firebaugh royalty will begin. Surely everyone is excited to see how our nominees fight for their title and how far they are willing to fight for the honor. Good luck to all nominees and for the rest, don’t forget to vote and support your favorite royalty pair!
