Project Graduation 2010
Haddam Killingworth High School
“Mediterranean Nights”

             On June 18, 2010, the Haddam Killingworth High School Project Graduation Committee held its 21st Project Graduation Celebration for the Haddam Killingworth High School Class of 2010.  The theme of this year’s party was “Mediterranean Nights.”  The decorating genius of the Decorations Committee transformed the HKHS Field House and its Lobby into Greek Mythology.    The all night substance- and alcohol-free party was attended by 142 members of the Class of 2010, along with 15 guests.

            The party started at 10:30 p.m. and lasted until the wee hours of the morning.  The tired graduates left the field house around 5 a.m., each having received a gift and having experienced a night to remember.  The graduates were entertained by a DJ all night long, along with a magician, fortune teller and air brush tattoo artists.  Activities included human foosball, mini NASCAR racing, a bungee trampoline and Gladiator.  The graduates also enjoyed ping-pong, volleyball and swimming.  Contests included cash giveaways throughout the night, a pie eating contest, Twister contest and a Limbo contest  The graduates also enjoyed unlimited food, including all the specialties they might find in Greece-- subs, pretzels, pizzas, tacos, nachos, Italian ice and of course, cake – and unlimited beverages.  At the end of the evening, each graduate received a gift, intended to assist in the transition to college or career; two lucky members of the class of 2010 received lap top computers.

            The Committees of HKHS Project Graduation are dedicated to providing the graduating seniors of HKHS with a safe, alcohol- and substance-free venue to celebrate their achievements with their classmates.  We could not make the event happen without the many members of our communities who donate their time, efforts, money, products, food, beverages and support to Project Graduation.  To all our supporters, to the members of our communities, and to the graduates: Thank you for making this event at success!
