Saturday,
May 7th, attendees of the Mount Pulaski Junior/Senior
prom enjoyed their moment in the spotlight as they
participated in the annual Prom Grand March on the steps
of the Mount Pulaski Courthouse.
As part of the prelude to prom, the 2022 Prom King and
Queen were announced. King Lucas Kuhlman and Queen Elana
Bruns were joined at the foot of the courthouse steps by
the rest of the royal court for a group photo.
After many photo ops, attendees then headed off to
Springfield for an evening meal and prom dance at Poe's
on the Hill.
