Middle School Dance: Monster Mash Bash

The Grosse Pointe War Memorial hosts the dance Thursday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:15 and it ends right at 8:30. Come in a school-appropriate Halloween costume: superhero, classic monster, movie character or something original, with Best Costume Awards up for grabs. Masks that fully cover the face and prop weapons aren't allowed.

Every ticket includes one slice of Jet's Pizza (cheese, pepperoni or gluten-free). Extra slices, chips, cookies and other treats are $2 each, cash or card, and water is free.

A parent or guardian has to register each student online. There are no door sales, and ticket sales end at 2 p.m. on the day of the dance. Students give their name at the door and need a valid school ID (a park pass or mistar printout with photo works too). Open to Grosse Pointe students only. No refunds or transfers. Parents can volunteer as chaperones and their child gets a free ticket.
