It's that time of year again....it's time for PROM!!!!!
---
Remember the fun (and sexual tension) of Prom? Maybe you were a jock, a goth, a nerd, or an artist. Or maybe you identify with the chaperones, chiding youthful shenanigans. No matter your style, get prepared to relive a special night with a kinky twist at Ignite: Prom!
This is going to be a fun night of play and socializing, so come stag and meet new friends or bring a date (or two). Dig out your tux or prom dress and maybe rip it off as the night goes on. There's no dress code at this party, so whether dressed to the nines or in leather/fetish attire, wear what makes you comfortable. The great thing about prom this time around is you can do and wear what you want. 
Charter a limo, ask that special someone for a dance (or a beating in the dungeon) and come join the party.
The atmosphere will be sexy and fun. Ask that special someone for a dance, or for a beating in the dungeon. Get a prom photo taken. Meet some new people. Maybe the school nurse will be there with needles or the principle with their paddle. We'll bring light snacks to fuel your sexy fun, music to play by, and we'll have a night to remember.

If you have a known, close exposure to Covid within the last 5 days, DO NOT come to this event, regardless of testing status. Your ticket will be refunded.
To attend our event, you must
1) Be vaccinated against Covid
2) Have a picture of a negative, day-of, at-home Covid test, including your name and date in the picture
Please be ready with proof of vaccination (card, picture, state record, etc) with your vaccination card and a time-stamped/dated image of your negative rapid test taken the same day (day of the event) at the door. THIS INCLUDES VOLUNTEERS.
If you forget to test, there are nearby drugstores where you can get one and test before entering. We may have a small number of tests available for sale at the door (which are more expensive than you can buy elsewhere), but ask that you enter masked and then go outside to take your test.
