Bellmore-Merrick seniors get together at pre-prom parties

Posted

Glitter and glitz were in ample supply last Thursday in Bellmore-Merrick as high school seniors gathered at friends’ homes before prom.

Calhoun High School’s prom was held at the Bridgeview Yacht Club in Island Park, Kennedy’s at the Inn at New Hyde Park and Mepham’s at the Sand Castle in Franklin Square. Before each dance, teens and their families met at homes across the area for traditional pre-prom parties.

Students decked out in formal wear posed for countless photographs with their dates and friends. One such gathering was hosted by Jenna Rudolfsky, a Calhoun senior, and her family at their Merrick home.
