Board designates Virden Community Center as regular prom site
Summary
The Duncan Unified District Governing Board voted to approve the Virden Community Center as the consistent venue for the high school prom, citing larger space, no rental fee and a two-day window for decoration; the board also asked staff to consider the fairgrounds for future events.
President Mike Sweetser moved and the board voted to approve the Virden Community Center as the district's common and consistent location for the high school prom.
The board approved the motion after administrators and students described the venue as larger and more attractive than previous sites. Becky Booth, the high-school liaison, asked the board to also consider the fairgrounds for some activities in the future. Board members noted the center allows teams to enter two days early to decorate and that the district does not pay a rental fee, factors they said make it preferable for a regular prom location.
The motion (Motion No. 78 25-26) passed in a roll call vote with President Mike Sweetser, Clerk Holly McCluskey, Member James Hughes and Member Wade Wagley voting yes; Member Pamela Harrington was recorded as absent.
The item was placed on the consented calendar of new business; no amendment or follow-up date was specified. The board recorded the fairgrounds as a future agenda item for consideration.
