By Sonny DiSabato, Senior Citizen Coordinator

Hello fellow seniors. The Senior Citizen Prom is early this year! Sponsored by the Pennsauken Education Association, the Senior Citizen Prom will be on Sunday, March 13 from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. at the Pennsauken High School Cafeteria. This great annual event features lunch and dancing; the Optical Academy will also be on hand from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. to provide eye exams. And immediately after the prom, seniors will be escorted to the auditorium to watch the high school’s performance of “Little Shop of Horrors.” And it’s all FREE to Pennsauken seniors!

Seniors can RSVP for the event by calling the Senior Citizen Coordinator’s office at (856) 665-1000 x125. Please provide your full name, phone number, and number of people in your party.
