The Sadie Hawkins dance is so much different than all the other dances. Instead of seeing people in dresses and slacks, they’re in jeans. Instead of wearing dress shoes, they are wearing all kinds of footwear. The girls ask the guys, and tables are turned from homecoming. Even though everything is different, it is just as good, or even better.

This year at Tempe Prep Sadies was a blast, and the stress that normally surrounds these kind of things was less apparent. With everyone relaxing and just enjoying themselves, Sadies is the kind of stress relief we all needed.

Featuring a DJ and excellent dance moves by Gabe Huerta, things couldn’t have gone better. Says senior and move-master Noah Teeters, “It was so much fun to just dance and hang with the boys.”

This dance was especially enjoyable, due to the amazing leadership of co-chairs Annie Meacham and Julia Cady. When asked what her favorite part of the dance was, Annie said: “I love that it’s casual and that everyone follows the theme. It made the decorations really fun to plan out. Setup actually ran really smoothly. We didn’t have a lot of volunteers though, but we did great with how many volunteers we did have.”

It really was a great dance, and since it was the last Sadies for the seniors, it was a great way to end it. It will definitely be a night to remember.
