Throughout the months of December and January, Junior Exec and Meghan Fulmer, started planning for Oil City High School’s Winter Formal Dance. After a lot of back and forth, the decision was made to make the dance not only Valentine’s Day themed but make it a Sadie Hawkins dance, where the girls ask the boys. In January and February, girls began asking their dates! Pictured below: are Freshmen Maryn Burchfield and Evan Wolfgong (top left), Brooke Waters and Colin Liederbach (middle), and Abby Foley and Jonny Hargenrader (top right). Sophomores Daleah Jones and Will McMahon (middle left) and Lauren Caralla and Gavin Stephens (middle right). Lastly, Juniors Abby Kreidler and Jacob Teeter (bottom left), Hanna Cratty and Jackson Ewing (middle), and Kylee Copley O-Neil and Brayden McFetridge (bottom right).
After all of the asking took place, the week finally came! Formal Week! Everyone was so excited and ready for the weekend. On Friday, Feb. 11, Junior Exec stayed after school and helped set up amazing decorations for the dance and it had an even more amazing outcome! On Saturday, Feb. 12, the Winter Formal took place. Pictured Below are Brooke Waters and Colin Liederbach (top left), in the group photo to the right are Maryn Burchfield and Evan Wolfgong, along with Abby Foley and Jonny Hargenrader (middle).
