Our Pastor does this event every year. If you are close to a huge mall like ours, you can make this happen! We book a bus, travel 3 hours to Edmonton, sleep on the floor of a church but spend most of our time at West Edmonton Mall. Kids under 14 must have an adult with them, all others...
Our church rents a really big park with skating in a predominately diverse neighborhood (skaters/gangs). We do 7 hours of food, games, prizes, bands, speakers, clowns, and much more.

Invite the youth group to bring their friends to this after-prom party. You can rent sumo suits, joust, inflatable maze, etc. You can also have barbeque, music and midnight movies. A good clean and fun environment for the kids to go to after prom. Christian's don't feel as pressured to go party and they have the opportunity to invite...
