Another great opportunity to check "shopping smart" off your list yet prom season! ๐โ
We spy some familiar beauties looking for their perfect princess!
Every year, we have to make the difficult decision to pare down our collection in order to fit our leftover gowns into storage. This year, we chose to donate the dresses we couldn't keep to ROCS Community Closet - Mitchell, a division of the Rural Office of Community Services. Located at 2nd & Lawler, the ROCS Community Closet - Mitchell is a non-profit thrift store offering a wide variety of merchandise -- including prom dresses -- at low prices. The thrift store operates solely with volunteer workers and donations, ensuring everything they do makes a positive impact on the local community.
If you are still looking for the perfect prom dress, stop in to check out their selection! ๐

Packing away the last of the dresses each year is never as exciting as getting them out and dreaming with our Cinderellas, but the Dakota Wesleyan University Tiger Volleyball team makes clean-up both easy and FUN! Thank you, ladies, for bringing the energy and the muscle!! ๐๐๐
Thank you to ALL of our volunteers for making Year 15 a memorable one! We are astounded every year when we think of how many people's time, talent and treasures come together to bring this fairytale to life! ๐
We spent some time volunteering at The Glass Slipper today.

Looking for another inexpensive prom option, with a nice Sunday drive to get it? The PEO Priceless Prom WS continues today in Wessington Springs, and every dress bought supports their mission to provide grants, scholarships and loans to support women's educational endeavors! ๐

Thank you to all of our volunteers, sponsors, shoppers, parents and RiverTree Church for making the 15th Annual Glass Slipper a success! The weather and illness tried to stop our mission, but we are so happy to announce that 85 out of 93 area girls who shopped with us will be Cinderellas in time for the ball this year thanks to YOU!

We are all set and ready to gooooo for the 15th Annual Glass Slipper!! Join us TOMORROW (Sat., Jan. 31) at RiverTree Church to check out this beautiful selection of FREE new and gently used prom dresses!
Just a few reminders...
๐ Doors open at 9am - sorry, no early entries!
๐ We will use Entrance D, across the street from Taco John's.
๐ While some of our dressing rooms are reserved for pre-scheduled appointments, the majority are saved for walk-in shoppers, who will be paired with a personal shopper and taken to the dresses on a first-come, first-served basis.
๐ If you have a pre-scheduled appointment and do not arrive within 5 minutes of your time slot, your appointment will be given to a walk-in Cinderella, and you will be welcome to join the wait list!
We are so excited to Bibbity-Bobbity-DO this with you!
See you in the morning!!

As the 15th Annual Glass Slipper approaches, we are grateful for the beautiful inventory thatโs being collected at RiverTree Church. ๐But, as we comb through the donations, we would LOVE to have even more gowns to share, especially in โ๏ธ sizes 16-24. If you donโt have a new/gently used dress in this size range, but would like to help expand our collection, we would welcome donations to help us purchase a few. ๐ฒ If youโd like to contribute toward this effort to make sure EVERY Cinderella finds the right-fit dress for the ball, please Venmo -Slipper-2. Every little bit will get us closer to our goal! ๐
๐ฉต We are also in need of more volunteers. Please consider signing up to help with this rewarding event at signupgenius.com/go/70A0549ABA62DA3FC1-61464678-2026?fbclid=IwY2xjawPjeYhleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETE0VGdsUUFaQnRNN1BXZ0ZJc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHmrXOHG_Z7dg6gjEQEN2mVeC77sVsiG5SKhXKYXy3J630dJoe4IQSnKRTrQO_aem_1pg9Hi3ZreOQGjT4-wNE9g #/
