The Pine River-Backus and Pequot Lakes school districts have cautiously, hopefully and ultimately tentatively each come up with a plan for prom. Pine River-Backus will be hosting prom on Saturday, May 15. While we have to comply with the state guidelines, we re still trying to make things as normal as possible for our students. They ve missed out on a lot, said prom adviser Katie Verschelde.
Plans continue, of course, to be somewhat uncertain because of the coronavirus pandemic, but the school district is trying to work within its means. As it stands, prom will be held for juniors and seniors at the school with a grand march that will only be open to those who receive tickets from the prom participants.
Cultural community eager for post-pandemic
Poll
Yes, this is enough
The city’s cultural facilities are planning to rev up offerings when the so-called “relaunch” from COVID-19 pandemic occurs, officials told city council Monday night.
That could include promoting neighbourhood block parties, closer work with community arts groups or even footage of rodeos and local history broadcast on the vast exterior of the Esplanade.
The sky could be the limit for cultural activities coming out of the pandemic, said Aaron Nelson, head of cultural programming for the city in a presentation to council.
“We will be gathering together again when it’s safe to do so,” he said while running through a presentation titled “Amplify, Facilitate, Inspire” for council on his department’s priorities.
