For starters, we are a town of about 90,000 people. The mall is not huge
but has 4 majors stores like Penneys, Dillards, Sears and Service
Merchandise. Has lots of little stores through out. We have done the
lock-in for the 7 years I have lived here. The event starts on Saturday
night at 10:00pm when mall closes and goes all night till 6:00 am Sunday
morning. This year the cost is $8.00 per girl. The theme is "Groovin the
Night Away. The event is for juniors. Program aides come to help. The
night will begin with dancing with a DJ from music from the 50's, 60's
and 70's. The dinner consisting of Hamburger, fries and coke. Then the
girls will move along three different stations. Do activities like games
of the eras, crafts of the eras and dance lessons. Snack will be a coke
float. Breakfast will be juice and muffins. I can send you a schedule if
you want one. We contact the mall and they charge us nothing. We arrange
for dinner meal from food vendor. We also give everyone a patch.
I have also done a smaller scale service unit brownie event on fashion
and make up. We did not do it in the mall but at a church. The thing
about the mall you can't come in until the mall closes so younger girls
have a hard time staying up.
I have a committee of people who help pull of the event. One in charge
of crafts, one in charge of games, one in charge of program aides, etc.
It is the most popular event in our council. We have girls come from out
of town too. Average turnout is 300 to 400 girls.
