Bust out the bell bottoms, platform shoes, and your grooviest threads-we’re turning back the clock to the 1970s for a dazzling evening of live music, disco dancing, and feel-good fundraising. It’s more than a party-it’s a chance to light the way for 22,000 students and 3,500 staff in North Kansas City Schools.

Every dollar raised helps fund classroom innovation, student scholarships, and critical resources that create bright futures across our community.

So what do you say? Will you go to PROM with us?

Your ticket unlocks the full Boogie Wonderland experience-food, beverages (including complimentary wine & beer), live entertainment, and all the disco vibes.

So let’s boogie for a cause and make it a night to remember!
