The July 31 prom-birthday party for Lila May Schow, who is about to turn 5, is getting bigger.
The party may well be the last one for this feisty strawberry blond ember of a girl who has battled neuroblastoma cancer for more than three years. The party will be in the Butler Bank Building, 301 Oak St., starting at 6 p.m.
The Halls are planning a party that will be part birthday, part prom, part Cinderella ball, part wedding day. Kids must be present with a parent. Lila will arrive in a horse and carriage and walk down a red carpet.
“It will be an event not to miss with food, games, real princesses, music, dancing, photo booths and more,” said family friend Jenny Lorenzen, who is organizing the party. Third Street (between State and Oak) will be closed off for food, games, and more.
People are welcome to bring gifts, although gift cards are a highly recommended idea. A donation jar will be available as well. Parking will be available at Hood River News, located three blocks away at 6th and State streets.
Union Event Co. is donating the space and organization. Other sponsors are: Melika; Juanita’s Fine Foods, with chips and ingredients for at least a few hundred people; Veronica’s Salsa, salsa for a few hundred people; Safeway, lemonade, 500 bottles of water, an cider; Rosauers, balloons, food trays, and more; Best Defense, $200; Hawks Ridge, sponsoring all costs of the drawbridge; A Kidz Dental Zone : $500 plus manning the Ice cream booth.
