Promtacular 2011 was a great success! Thank you to all who attended and to BARCC who facilitated great discussions. We focused on healthy self image and healthy dating skills but there was a special focus on dancing, in particular daggering. If you don't know it, youtube it. Its a highly sexualized dance that took over the prom last year. Great conversation about peer pressure, dancing and dating. Thanks again!
