Shore Hill prom turns seniors into teenagers again
Proms aren’t just for high school students anymore.
The Shore Hill Neighborhood Center, a Bay Ridge program for senior citizens sponsored by NYU Lutheran, hosted hundreds of seniors at its first-ever prom on June 30. The event took place at Shore Hill, the senior citizens apartment complex at 9000 Shore Road. The attendees, who were 60 years of age and older, dressed up in their best party attire and danced the afternoon away to the pulsating beat of Latin music as well as hits from the 1950s and 1960s.
The Shore Hill Community Room, where the prom took place, was decorated in black and silver for the occasion. There was also a music-themed cake.
