So, being a parent is expensive, throw in prom, and it can get outrageously expensive.  This is an incredible program the Ocean County Library is having for Ocean County students (and parents) getting ready for prom.

My prom was so much fun, I wore peach.  Can you remember what color dress you wore?  Let's make it a fun and special night for our kids!  And what a way to help out the community with everyone coming together and helping parents out.

For the last several weeks the Ocean County Library has been asking for gently used prom dresses of all sizes so everyone can attend their prom.  This is for students in 8th - 12th grade.

Donations are still being taken at any Ocean County Library Branch until April 23rd, 2017.  They are asking for larger dress sizes and please no bridesmaid dresses.

Here the dates and towns when they'll be giving them out in Ocean County:
