The energy was high and the
smiles wide at the second annual Sweetheart Dance on Sunday
afternoon. The event hosted by the Lincoln Park District was another
huge success, with over 100 moms and dads who brought their sons and
daughters, dressed in their finest.

On Saturday afternoon, park district director
Marsha Greenslate was busy making pink jello desserts to serve to
guests.
A perfect backdrop for having a picture taken
of the darling couples.
Greenslate said that by noon Saturday, much of
the decorating was finished. Snack favors were at each seat,
and more snacks would be added in a buffet format on Sunday.
On Sunday, guests enjoyed a variety of tasty
treats.

crafts a special party favor.
