Homecoming 2010: A Magical Night

By: Jaclyn Myers, Senior

Friday night, January 8th, students, parents, and alumni filled the gym with amused laughter and sighs of amazement. Homecoming 2010 continued with the excitement of years past while adding a few surprises for the audience.

Once the crowd had been held in suspense long enough, the stage curtains drew back to reveal Mr. and Miss ACS 2009, Justin Marley and Katherine Johnston, shadowed by a pink and blue Disney castle, which was created by Ashley Thomas and Renee Brown.

The first couple, Courtney Bunker and Tyler Van Nostrand, was brought in on a carriage drawn by two "horses," Alex Shockley and Mich'al Tice, who garnered several giggles from the crowd. The next couples, Kaitlyn Forehand and Jon Racke; Michelle Jacobson and Benton Tuck; Jaclyn Myers and Caleb Barker; and Ashley Thomas and Nat Foust, also rode in on the carriage and took their places on the floor, filling the gym with purple, black, and green shimmers and sparkles.
Little Mr. and Miss ACS 2010, Brad Bennett and Morgan Billings, dressed in the prince and princess costumes from Cinderella, flashed big smiles as they brought the much anticipated envelope. As Mr. Manning announced Mr. and Miss ACS 2010, the crowd erupted in applause and whistles. Kaitlyn Forehand and Caleb Barker, after being crowned, took their walk across the floor and then claimed their seats in front of the castle. Their beaming faces proved that happy endings aren't just for fairy tales.
