Mapleton cheap prom dresses, Ia. ― The tornado with its 136 mile-per-hour winds ripped through Mapleton a week ago with little more than 10 minutes' warning.
But of course everybody saw prom coming ages ago. This is the high school rite of passage steeped in nervous anticipation, preparation, the awkward ritual of it all.
The surprising part was that prom went on as planned Saturday for the 120 juniors and seniors of Maple Valley-Anthon-Oto High School, despite the destruction of more than 100 homes and the rearranging of so many lives. One minor change was the after-prom party relocated to nearby Anthon because of the leaky roof in Mapleton's elementary school gym.
The "Grand March" is the annual spectacular centerpiece of MVAO's prom - some combination of fashion runway and practice wedding processional. But this year brought the added emotional swirl of tornado recovery. Hundreds filed into the high school gym plus size prom dresse 2011, dropping free-will donations into a big Bridesmaid dresses, black box decorated with pink and purple ribbons. Some tux-clad students passed buckets through the crowd.
"We're going to have a party tonight!" Dan Dougherty, 45, the high school principal, said in an impassioned introduction. Just one week after the storm, he added prom dresses 2011, "It's such a big deal for us to have prom in our house."
A reflective walkway stretched the entire length of the packed gym, with 11-foot cardboard guitars on either side of the staging area in keeping with the "rock 'n' roll" theme.
The night's comic relief was prom couple Steve Oberg, superintendent, escorting Dougherty. Oberg sported a 1940s zoot suit borrowed from the theater wardrobe cheap Formal dresses, while the principal made good on his promise earlier in the week to don a prom dress to spur extra donations. The goofball administrative prom "dates" even staged a "$10 dance" immediately following the Grand March.
Also on the runway: Lorissa Mauch, 16, a junior from Mapleton, attending her first prom Saturday.
"It's kind of been a depressing week," she said. "I've kind of been happy for (prom) to get here sooner so I could have a little fun."
Mauch started selling dozens of magazine subscriptions in August to help raise prom money. She bought her prom dress, black with silver sequins, the weekend before the tornado. Her home was destroyed. But the dress somehow survived.
An orange "Do not enter" sticker now adorns the front of Mauch's house at 309 S. Second St. on the west side of town. She lived there with her brother Colby cheap long prom dresses, a senior, their dad, Jason, his fiancee and her two children.
Mauch was at her grandmother's house in the neighboring town of Castana when the tornado hit. Jason and fiancee Crystal Young dived into the basement as their Mapleton neighborhood disintegrated around them.
The next day, Mauch was able to extract her dress, undamaged inside its garment bag, from a bedroom closet.
Since then, Mauch has been sleeping on a sofa in her grandmother's one-bedroom home in Castana. That's also where Mauch spent Saturday morning and midday preparing for prom. She already was sporting a spray tan applied Friday in Sioux City.
Mauch is a softspoken cheerleader who also runs track. She stands about 4 feet 10? inches when not wearing prom heels. Her date for the night was Adam Uhl, a freshman. If I get nothing else correct in this column cheap guest dresses, I should note that Mauch clarified to her family during the hairdo banter that Uhl was her prom date, not her boyfriend.
She fired off one text message after another as her mother, Julie Becker, spent 90 minutes curling and arranging her hair.
Becker lives in Albion, Neb., and runs a salon there. She brought curling irons, heat-activated hair spray and all the other essentials along with diapers for her 5-week-old son, Keegan.
It seemed good for Mauch to have superficial decisions to ponder after a week that left her not knowing where she'll live in the weeks ahead.
Should her bangs be down or up?
"I never thought there would be this many people watching me get my hair done," she said with a smile as both family and reporters snapped photos.
Mauch's sister from Nebraska, Tori Baldwin, a high school freshman, bottle-fed Keegan in the dining room next to her and teased Mauch for spending too much money on one night of prom.
"I only spent $80 on the dress," Mauch said.
"Eighty dollars you could have spent on something else," Baldwin shot back.
Colby, meanwhile, sought his uncle Josh Mauch's advice about buying a 1996 Trans-Am souped up with a Corvette engine.
Josh's Labrador retriever mutt, Howie, sprawled on the kitchen floor.
Becker, 35, talked about how she had been pregnant with Colby at her own junior prom. And she and Mauch's father held their wedding reception the same night as their senior prom.
Saturday morning's overcast sky and wintry gusts in Mapleton cleared to make way for a sunny prom afternoon.
Prom hair was in evidence all around town.
The Community Center remained the headquarters for disaster relief, but the Avenue of Style salon was the place to go to catch prom buzz.
Mikay Schaffer, who was applying makeup to high school girls Saturday afternoon, said she was "glad they're not going to any of their classmates' funerals instead of their prom."
She and four stylists there were booked solid Saturday from about 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. with prom girls seeking the popular "bumps" (a tuft of hair situated halfway back on the top of the head). The gossip, I was told by high schoolers there, ranged from "Who has the biggest hair?" to "Who has an ugly dress?"
Two of the stylists at the shop owned by Cindy Kuehle were refugees from another salon, Hair Divas, damaged in the tornado.
Senior DeAnna Gosch considered herself "excited" as she sat in the chair ball gowns, but she also acknowledged that it had been "a stressful week." The week spanning disaster and prom also had "brought us closer" as a community, she added. Then she turned around to see the news photographer behind her.
"Oh my gosh - there's cameras in here!" she panicked.
No Formal dresses, it wasn't a normal MVAO prom based on media coverage alone.
But at least there was one night of normalcy for Mauch and her classmates before the slower slog of recovery to come.Topics related articles:
