Tickets are $10 per person. Keepsake photo key chains will be given with the first 300 tickets sold.

Glacier High School prom-goers will be whisked away in a “Journey to Neverland” from 9 to 11:30 p.m. in the school commons.

Tickets are $20 per couple or $25 after Monday. Single tickets are $15 through March 16 and $20 after March 20.

Combination tickets to gain entrance to prom at both Glacier and Flathead high school are also available for $30.

Tickets are $50 a couple or $25 per person.

Students throughout the valley are invited to an after-prom party in Kalispell sponsored by Flathead CARE.
