Popular Prom Songs Through The Years
Popular songs provide the soundtrack to young adults’ lives. Such songs offer comfort when hearts are broken, provide common ground with peers, and can even lift a person up during a study session or before a big game.
Music also plays a large role on prom night. Prom playlists are often a mix of high-energy anthems and slower ballads. These songs can serve as poignant reminders of the ups and downs of high school. Memories sparked by music can last long after photos or other mementos are forgotten.
2010s: Electronic Dance Influence
Over the last 30 years, certain songs have become associated with the eras in which they first debuted. Naturally, these songs also were popular at proms during those years. Here is a look back at some of the most memorable prom songs from the 1990s through today.
1990s: Iconic Power Ballads and R&B Slow Jams
Proms during the 1990s were dominated by larger-than-life soundtracks and R&B groups, which balanced the grunge and hard-rock sounds of the era. This was the peak of the slow-dance era, with many songs also serving as movie soundtrack favorites.
• “I Swear,” All-4-One
• “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You,” Bryan Adams
• “Finally,” CeCe Peniston
• “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing,” Aerosmith
• “My Heart Will Go On,” Celine Dion
• “I’ll Be,” Edwin McCain
• “Tha Crossroads,” Bone Thugs-NHarmony
2000s: Party Anthems
The 2000s ushered in an energy shift toward hip-hop and club hits that kept dance floors packed. Proms became more upbeat and energetic with playlists like these.
• “Yeah!,” Usher featuring Lil Jon & Ludacris
• “Mr. Brightside,” The Killers
• “Hips Don’t Lie,” Shakira
• “Get Low,” Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz
• “If I Ain’t Got You,” Alicia Keys
• “Chasing Cars,” Snow Patrol
• “Hero,” Enrique Iglesias
The party continued into the next decade with the rise of electronic dance music and songs that sparked viral moments on early social media platforms. The following songs were likely heard at many proms throughout the 2010s.
• “Uptown Funk,” Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars
• “Party Rock Anthem,” LMFAO
• “All of Me,” John Legend
• “Thinking Out Loud,” Ed Sheeran
• “Timber,” Pitbull featuring Kesha
• “Shut Up and Dance,” Walk the Moon
• “Shake It Off,” Taylor Swift
• “Despacito,” Luis Fonsi featuring Daddy Yankee
2020s: Nostalgia and Viral Hits
The modern era’s prom songs reflect a mix of 2000s nostalgia and tracks that have gained popularity through social media.
• “Stay,” The Kid Laroi & Justin Bieber
• “Levitating,” Dua Lipa
• “About Damn Time,” Lizzo
• “As It Was,” Harry Styles
• “good 4 u,” Olivia Rodrigo
• “Espresso,” Sabrina Carpenter
• “Pink Pony Club,” Chappell Roan
Timeless Favorites
While current hits tend to dominate prom playlists, certain songs remain staples year after year.
• “Don’t Stop Believin’,” Journey
• “Cupid Shuffle,” Cupid
• “Cha Cha Slide,” DJ Casper
• “Dancing Queen,” ABBA
• “Starships,” Nicki Minaj
• “Sweet Caroline,” Neil Diamond
Prom music helps create the soundtrack to students’ lives and can help people remember the feeling of that special evening long after prom has come and gone.
Have Your Furry Friends Tested Annually
The American Heartworm Society advises dog owners to have their furry companions tested for heartworm annually. Such tests can typically be conducted during routine preventive care visits to the veterinarian. The AHS notes that such tests are necessary even for dogs that are taking year-round heartworm prevention medications. Tests can confirm that such programs are working or indicate if they are not effective. The American Veterinary Medical Association notes that antigen tests are the most commonly performed tests. These tests detect the presence of adult female heartworms and they are typically highly accurate. If a test is positive, veterinarians may recommend further testing, including radiographs, a blood profile and an echocardiogram. Such tests can determine a number of things about the infection, including its severity. The AVMA also notes that the additional testing can help determine the best course of treatment. Cat owners should know that it’s more difficult to detect heartworm in cats than in dogs. The AHS indicates that cats are much less likely than dogs to have adult heartworms, making the disease harder to detect in felines. Veterinarians may recommend cats receive both the antigen test and an antibody test, which detects exposure to heartworm larvae. The AVMA notes that more testing may increase the likelihood of detecting the disease in cats.
On April 28th, the Lindenhurst Community Cares Coalition participated in DEA National Fentanyl Awareness Day at Lindenhurst High School and we couldn’t be more proud of the student who made it happen.
Thank you Vanessa And Maddie!
Our youth coalition leaders organized and designed the entire awareness table in the school rotunda, reaching every student who came through during lunch. Interactive activities included the One Pill Can Kill and Real vs. Fake pill recognition display, a sugar scale demonstration showing the terrifyingly small amount of fentanyl that can be lethal, and a prize wheel that kept the energy going all day.
Our team connected one-on-one with students, provided Narcan kits to those who needed them, and shared information about local resources, including our Pizza Box Campaign, which is bringing prevention messaging from middle schoolers through restaurant partners right here in the Town of Babylon.
Thank you to Lindenhurst High School for welcoming us, and to every student who
Score A Good Grade On A Graduation Dinner
Students spend a good portion of their lives studying. By the time graduation arrives, thousands of hours spent on homework and writing term papers have passed. According to the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education, the number of U.S. high school graduates was expected to reach nearly 3.9 million students in 2025. The Education Data Initiative says 2.168 million bachelor’s degrees were conferred in spring 2025 in the United States. Individuals on the precipice of the next chapter in their lives are certainly worthy of celebration. A graduation dinner might just be an A-plus idea.
A graduation dinner is all about balancing the magnitude of the occasion with a relaxed environment for the graduate. Here is a syllabus for a seamless graduation meal.
• Secure the date. Graduation season is one of the busiest times of year for restaurants. Between May and June, millions of graduates will don caps and gowns and then be eager to celebrate. For those who are not hosting at home, it is essential to move quickly to secure a reservation. Book a reservation as soon as you know the graduation date.
• Consider another day. Graduation ceremonies tend to run late. Rather than feeling beholden to the actual graduation date and worrying about making it to the venue on time, consider hosting the graduation dinner the evening before or after to sidestep the post-commencement rush.
• Ask about packages. Speak with the
catering manager at the venue to find out if there is a specific party or graduation package. Many places offer limited prix fixe menus for large groups so the kitchen can operate efficiently. Be sure the graduate’s favorite foods are included on the menu; otherwise, broaden the venue search.
• Consider an at-home affair. Although it may involve extra work, hosting at home enables you to customize the menu to reflect the guest of honor’s favorite foods. Personalizing the meal with dishes inspired by school colors, a signature cocktail or mocktail, and themed desserts can make the event even more memorable. Not all of the food has to be homemade. Hiring a caterer and setting up buffet-style chafing dishes can make hosting less labor-intensive.
• Truly take the cake. Don’t forget to feature a centerpiece dessert. Beyond the classic “Congrats, Grad!” sentiments, consider a cake topper customized to the graduate’s area of study. A stethoscope for someone entering health care or a stock market ticker for a finance major can make the cake especially unique.
• Keep the program short and sweet. Graduates have already endured plenty of lectures and speeches, so any remarks should be brief. Highlight a specific honor or achievement, and skip lengthy slideshows or photo montages. A simple framed “then and now” photo featuring the graduate on the first day of kindergarten or preschool can serve as a meaningful conversation starter.
Tips To Throw A Memorable Graduation Party
Each year, newly minted graduates proudly don their caps and gowns and walk across countless stages to receive their diplomas or degrees. Graduation is a proud moment for students, and that pride is shared by family members and close friends who have supported them throughout their academic careers.
Graduation is a milestone worth celebrating. Planning a graduation party takes some effort to ensure the event is worthy of this significant moment in a student’s life.
Begin with a theme
Hosts can select a theme that aligns with the graduate’s interests. Consider themes tied to what a new high school graduate plans to study in college, or make the theme reflect the career path a recent college graduate hopes to pursue. Additional ideas include the graduate’s favorite movies, musical interests, cherished hobbies, or love of travel.
Set a budget
Establish a clear budget to manage expenses and prioritize key aspects of the celebration. Hosting a party away from home may seem more expensive, but when hosts factor in tent, table, chair, catering, and décor rentals, booking a venue may actually be more affordable. Comparing all potential costs can help party hosts determine the best option and create a realistic budget.
Make the venue interesting If possible, tailor the venue to the theme. For example,
if the graduate loves the ocean and beach, a beach bonfire party can make for a memorable celebration. Graduates who enjoy concerts might appreciate a party that recreates the feeling of a live performance. Hire a musician, set up stadium-style seating, and create a stage where the performer can entertain guests. Afterwards, hire a DJ or stream a playlist created by the guest of honor.
Create a grand entrance
Find a fun way for the graduate to make a memorable entrance. Perhaps the lights can be dimmed before a spotlight shines on the graduate. For a sports-themed celebration, the graduate can run through a breakaway banner similar to a football team taking the field before
kickoff. A creative entrance can add excitement and help make the event unforgettable.
Include fun activities
Dancing, photo booth sessions, scavenger hunts, or demonstrations tied to the party theme can keep guests entertained throughout the celebration. Games and interactive activities also can help guests mingle and create lasting memories.
Keep the food simple
Keep the graduate’s favorite foods in mind and offer dishes that are familiar and crowd-pleasing. There is no need to serve elaborate or exotic cuisine; guests are more likely to remember flavorful foods and generous hospitality. A signature cocktail or mocktail also can add a personalized touch to the party.
Capture the memories
Create opportunities for guests to share messages and memories with the graduate. A guest book, memory jar, or instant-photo station can provide keepsakes the graduate will treasure long after the celebration ends.
If the idea of planning a graduation party alone seems daunting, particularly during a busy season when dates and venues book quickly, a professional party planner can be an invaluable resource. With some preparation and creativity, family and friends can celebrate graduates in a way that is both fitting and memorable.

Prom Night Prep Tips For Parents Helping Teens
Prom is a teenage rite of passage. Prom night provides one more exciting adventure in a school experience that likely began with preschool jitters and will soon culminate in graduates receiving their high school diplomas.
Prom planning often reaches a fever pitch a few weeks before the big event. A significant amount of time and money can go into making prom a night to remember. While teens may be focused on fashion and fun, parents may be wondering what they can do to help steer their sons and daughters in the right direction. Here are some pointers for families preparing for prom.
• Set a budget: Inflation and supply chain issues have contributed to rising prices on many consumer goods, so prom attire and accessories may cost more than expected. Determine how much you can reasonably contribute and consider asking your teenager to help cover some expenses. When teens contribute financially, they may be more mindful about spending. Renting a gown or tuxedo instead of purchasing one outright also can help reduce costs.
• Be a parent first, friend second: The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety says the months of April through June can be especially dangerous for teens, particularly when it comes to alcoholrelated traffic accidents. Some teens may see
prom night as an opportunity to experiment with alcohol or drugs. Parents should not condone underage drinking, whether hosting teens at home or organizing an after-party at a hotel or restaurant. Providing alcohol to anyone under 21 is both irresponsible and illegal in the United States.
• Set an example by staying calm: Prom planning can be stressful, especially when schedules, reservations, transportation, and attire all need to come together at once. Even though
teens may appear mature, emotions can run high when things do not go according to plan. Parents can help by reacting calmly to challenges and modeling problem-solving skills when unexpected obstacles arise.
• Stay involved: An involved parent can help teens make safer choices. Parents should know who their children will be spending time with, where they plan to go after prom, and how they will get home safely. Open conversations about boundaries, curfews, and expectations can help reduce risky behavior and encourage responsible decision-making.
• Discuss safety ahead of time: Talk with teens about the importance of traveling with trusted friends, staying aware of their surroundings, and contacting a parent or guardian if they ever feel unsafe or uncomfortable. Encourage teens to keep their phones charged and share transportation details before leaving for the evening. Having a plan in place can provide peace of mind for both parents and teens.
Prom night can be a memorable and enjoyable milestone in a teenager’s life. With thoughtful planning, open communication, and parental involvement, families can help make the experience safer, less stressful, and more enjoyable for everyone involved.
The Most Dangerous Driver On The Road Might Be…Underinsured

on, no phone in your hand, eyes forward—and still end up in a bad situation because of someone else.
Here’s the part most people don’t think about: not everyone driving in New York is properly insured.
Roughly 8–10% of drivers in New York have no insurance at all. But the bigger issue is that a much larger group is driving with only the state minimum liability limits of $25,000/$50,000. That may satisfy the legal requirement, but in a real accident, it doesn’t go very far.
And if that’s all the other driver has, that’s where their policy stops.
That’s where Supplementary Uninsured/ Underinsured Motorist (SUM) coverage comes in. Think of SUM as protection for you and your passengers—not your car. If the other driver has no insurance, your policy steps in. If they have low limits, your SUM coverage can help fill the gap.
income, recover physically, and maintain your lifestyle. Cars can be repaired or replaced. A serious injury is a different story.
Picture this: someone runs a red light and hits you. You’re injured and taken to the hospital.
Between the ambulance, ER visit, and follow-ups, that $25,000 can be used up quickly—sometimes before treatment is even complete.
For example, if you carry $250,000/$500,000 in SUM coverage and the other driver only has $25,000/$50,000, you’re not stuck there. You can access additional protection through your own policy, up to your limit.
The hidden risk is this: most people focus on damage to their vehicle, but the bigger exposure is your ability to earn an
The simple move is to make sure your SUM coverage matches your Bodily Injury limits— typically $250,000/500,000 or higher. Because the real question isn’t whether you’re a good driver. It’s whether the person who hits you is.
Most people don’t realize this gap exists until they need it. If this is new information, it might be time for a different kind of conversation about your coverage.

A massage may be seen as the ideal way to unwind at the end of a long week. According to the Mayo Clinic, massage is a component of integrative medicine that is increasingly being offered along with standard treatments for a host of medical conditions and situations. Massage has long been associated with helping to reduce stress, pain, muscle soreness, and tension. And massage also can help improve circulation
and lower heart rate and blood pressure. However, various studies also have suggested massage can be utilized to treat a range of additional conditions, including anxiety, headaches, fibromyalgia, and nerve pain. The Mayo Clinic notes that more study is needed to confirm the benefits of massage for treating such conditions, but massage can remain a beneficial component of wellness regimens.

Great Spaces To Host A Graduation Party
Graduation season has arrived, and with it comes plenty of celebrations honoring students who have spent years working toward a diploma or degree. Graduation parties commemorate students’ hard work, and there are many great places to host these special events and make the occasion even more memorable.
• Hotel with a private event space: Hotels are excellent venues for larger parties because they often provide everything needed — including catering, staff, overnight accommodations, and audio-visual equipment — in one package. Check local hotels to see if their banquet or meeting spaces might be a good fit for a graduation celebration.
• Acti vity spaces: Many graduates prefer something less formal than a traditional party. Activitybased venues, such as boutique bowling alleys, arcades, or entertainment complexes, allow guests to mingle, move around, and play games while celebrating the graduate’s achievement.
• Outdoor parks or community spaces: Towns and municipalities often have outdoor venues that can be rented or reserved for little to no cost. Covered pavilions, picnic areas, and park shelters can provide budget-friendly spaces to celebrate outdoors during warm-weather graduation season.
• Community centers or halls: Venues such as firehouse party rooms, VFW halls, or community centers often offer affordable rental options and the convenience of hosting outside the home. Party planners can bring their own food, entertainment, and decorations, allowing greater flexibility and
creative control over the event theme.
• Home or backyard celebrati ons: Graduation parties held at home offer a relaxed atmosphere and flexible schedule for guests to stop by throughout the day. If space allows, homeowners can rent tents, tables, flooring, and lighting to transform a backyard into an elegant venue. Home parties can range from casual cookouts to elaborate catered affairs.
• Family-style restaurants: Restaurants that can comfortably accommodate large groups help ensure guests stay well fed and relaxed while honoring the graduate. Some establishments may require a prix fixe menu for larger parties to streamline kitchen operations and service. Even so, multi-course menus can provide good value and make hosting a stress-free experience.
• Rooftop or waterfront venues: Scenic venues with waterfront views or rooftop settings can add a memorable backdrop to a graduation celebration. These spaces often create a festive atmosphere and provide excellent opportunities for photographs with family and friends.
Graduation parties are a staple of late spring and early summer, and there are plenty of ideal locations where family and friends can gather to celebrate graduates and their accomplishments.

8 Games To Try At Your Next Backyard Bash
Games can enhance any outdoor function. Whether at the beach or in one’s backyard, activities can keep guests entertained between the food and other refreshments. The good news is that most games designed for these types of functions are appropriate for players across a wide range of ages.
The following are eight games that can add excitement to any outdoor gathering.
1. Ladder toss: Also known as ladder golf, this game requires players to toss string-attached balls onto a ladder-shaped target. Points are awarded depending on which rung the ball lands on.
2. Kubb: Pronounced “KOOB,” this Swedish lawn game is believed to have originated during the era of the Vikings and is best described as a blend of bowling and horseshoes. Two teams compete to knock over their opponents’ wooden blocks by throwing batons.
3. Cornhole: Many people have played cornhole, which involves tossing bean bags at a cornhole board. The objective is to get the bag into the hole or onto the board to score points. The game can be played as singles or doubles, and the first team to reach 21 points wins.
4. Spikeball™: Also called Roundnet, this two-on-two sport is played by hitting a ball off a net with the goal of preventing the opposing team from returning it within three touches.
5. Ring toss: This game tests hand-eye coordination. Players take turns tossing rings onto target pegs. Each peg is worth a different number of points, and the first player to reach the agreed-upon score wins.
6. Connect Four in a Row: Giant versions of familiar tabletop games also are available for yard use. In this game, players try to get four chips in a row vertically, horizontally, or diagonally.
7. Kan Jam®: Similar to cornhole or horseshoes, Kan Jam® features two teams of two players who alternate throwing a frisbee and trying to deflect it. The goal is to get the frisbee into the can.
8. Rollers: Goals are placed 25 feet apart, and players roll wooden discs in an attempt to get closest to the goal. Each side of the disc has a different number that determines the point value.
Backyard events can be enhanced with a little gameplay, and there are plenty of fun options for your next gathering.
