Prom or Graduation

Although I have titled this book the "After Prom Party Guide", it can also be used to plan virtually any occasion where you want to host an event for older teens. Graduations, birthdays, post game parties, homecoming, any occasion where the safety of teenagers is a factor. Obviously, the school and the community will not be involved in a birthday party, but the planning tips, resources and party ideas can be used to help you stage any event.

And remember, I am so confident that you will see value in this book that I offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Just one idea could save you thousands, but if you decide this information isn't worth much more to you, you have 30 days to receive a full refund. There is nothing to lose - except time - and possibly forgetting one tiny item that means the difference between a party - and a GREAT PARTY!

I do hope that you will visit my After Prom Party website and read more about our party planning guide. Thanks!

Testimonial

I just received a testimonial about the After Prom Party Guide that I wanted to share. This testimonial came from Mac Bledsoe, who is a teacher, coach, parent and author of "Parenting With Dignity" books and DVD program. Mac is also the father of famed Dallas Quarterback, Drew Bledsoe. Mac wrote...

"It has been my privilege, over a thirty-year career, to work with kids as a teacher, coach, and parent and I must say that one of the most recurring problems during that time has been the Prom Night Parties! I have seen, first hand, some of the terrible things that can happen on prom night. Not until this book have I ever seen a plan for preventing the terrible things form happening, while at the same time preserving the excitement, wonderful traditions, and lasting memories of that great event in every kid's life. This book is a must read for every parent with a child of an age to attend a prom dance! The suggestions in this book will make the Prom Night more fun for kids while preventing the common problems associated with that event!."

Why a book?

Why do you need a book just to throw a party?

Your After Prom party is a major EVENT. This is not a neighborhood Bar-B-Que or friends getting together for a relaxing evening. Arranging a party - and staging an event where you will have legal, financial, security and liability concerns are two completely different things. Your After Prom Party will require significant demands, forethought and intense planning that most people have never needed to consider.

Typically we get wrapped up in the food and entertainment aspects of throwing a party for friends. With an event such as an After Prom party, those are secondary concerns. That is why we have taken the time to develop effective guidelines and procedures and include everything from example solicitation letters (that you can download and customize), party theme ideas, instructions on what to do, how to do it, where to go for help and how to finance and insure your event.

In addition, the world is a different place today after the tragic events of 9/11. There are new laws and requirements that must be acknowledged that relate to everything from fundraising to liability issues. As an example, there is now the government sponsored "Do Not Call" program that can affect how you proceed when you solicit funds and gift donations.

You cannot hope to stage a successful After Prom party without proper planning and knowledge. This is why our book was created - to help you plan, promote, finance and stage a FUN, After Prom event that meets everyone's expectations - from the kids to the parents, police and school officials.

Who needs this?

We ALL know what can happen on prom night - after the prom. We either learned the hard way, or read about incidents in the newspaper. Whether we want to admit it or not, prom night is often viewed as a "right of passage" and an excuse to abandon values and common sense and go wild.
The After Prom Party Guide is a remarkable new eBook crammed full of effective and proven procedures, sample solicitation letters, party theme ideas, instructions on what to do, how to do it, where to go for help and how to finance an After Prom party that will have the kids talking for months afterwards. BUT most of all, this is a solution to keeping YOUR kids safe on one of the most dangerous nights of their lives.

According to the U.S. Dept. of Transportation, on a typical prom weekend:
  • 48 American teenagers are killed in vehicle crashes
  • 5,202 are injured
  • 40% of the deaths are alcohol-related

As parents and caregivers, it is sometimes necessary to protect our children from themselves. Prom night is one of our last opportunities to do this.

So, "who needs this book"?

Every high school in the country.

This book is about helping you save time, money and frustration. Mostly - this book is about saving lives. The purpose of this book is to serve as a detailed "Fast Start" guide for parents and PTOs to stage a substance free After Prom party that is FUN. The guide covers every conceivable facet of planning, organizing, promoting and producing your event.

Don't put this off a moment longer, get the book and begin organizing your after-prom party today! Learn all about it here...

Welcome Message

Thank you for visiting our After-Prom blog. The purpose of this blog is to support our new After Prom Party Planning Guide by offering new information and resources to assist your party planning efforts.

In many cases it is not the PTA/PTO or the school that organizes the after-prom party. It is often the loving, concerned parents who take it upon themselves to ensure that their children have a safe, fun alternative to 'traditional' After Prom carousing. Those parents seldom if ever have unlimited resources or "Hollywood prom party budgets".

If we provide just ONE idea for you, it could save you thousands of dollars... and yes, possibly even save a child's life. That is why we created the After-Prom Party Guide. In the After Prom Party Guide you will get event planning tips from concept to completion! Coordinate a safe, fun, drug and alcohol-free, teen-focused celebration with entertaining and engaging activities. Learn more about our After Prom Party Guide by clicking here.

Thank you!
