retroProm 2023 was the grooviest night! 

It had been four years since we partied together. And boy did we dance! Together, we enjoyed the party of the year on May 5th at 8 p.m. at Athens Cotton Press with a special, one-night-only performance from Athens’s favorite cover band, The Highballs! 

But that’s not all. All funds go directly towards supporting our community’s older adults through helping us provide transportation, meal assistance, caregiver support, wellness classes, employment opportunities, social activities and so much more. 

Over the years, retroProm has raised over $160,000 to support our programs and care for our older neighbors. This year alone, we raised over $66,000! We’re so grateful for our community’s amazing support!
