Prom night finally arrived on Friday, May 11, for the special needs population in Volusia County thanks to the Special Populations Activity and Recreation Council of Volusia and the city of Ormond Beach.
Described as "a magical night for people with special needs," about 100 people, from family members to the dance's invited guests, spent the night at the Nova Community Center enjoying dinner, dance and the company of their friends. This is one of the six to seven dances SPARC holds a year where any special needs person in Volusia County is invited to attend. For information on future events, contact Lori Koplin, Nova Community Center and special populations division coordinator at 676-3252.
