Z96/WZNS, in conjunction with Eglin Federal Credit Union, is hosting a "Dance Party Prom" on Saturday, May 30th, starting at 8 p.m. The Fort Walton Beach-Destin radio station that plays “All The Hits,” is turning its weekly “Saturday Night Hit Mix” into a special occasion for area high school teens who didn’t get a prom this year due to COVID-19.
Z96 encourages students, teachers, school administrators, parents, siblings and alumni from local high schools to send their "senior shout-outs" to be included during the “Z96 Dance Party Prom.” They can record shout-outs for the “Class of 2020” on the Z96 app or at Z96.com.
On Saturday, May 30th, starting at 8 p.m., the “Class of 2020” can join the party by playing Z96 on-air (96.5FM), online at Z96.com, or stream through their Alexa or Google device, then dance on their patio, home, backyard or even driveway. Whether they “dress up” or “dress down,” the students will get all of their favorite artists and their favorite songs, back-to-back and beat-to-beat from 8 p.m. until midnight along with the “senior shout-outs” airing during the party.
“Z96 has provided thousands of free prom dresses to area high school girls for 15 years,” says Hayden Green, Z96 Program Director. “Although we couldn’t do that this year due to the coronavirus shutting everything down, we can still help local students celebrate with a different kind of prom.”
