- Midwest Teen Prom 2024: We are very excited to announce that we have booked a second year at the Encore Hotel in Berlin, Ohio, for the annual UCG Midwest Teen Prom! It will be on Saturday, March 16, 2024. The Encore Hotel provided a gorgeous setting for the prom and spacious venue for the church service last year, so we are very excited to be able to return. At this time, we have reserved the entire hotel for our prom weekend so we should have a very special experience for all of the teens and their families again this year.
This annual event welcomes over 100 teens from states all around the country. The weekend includes a Friday evening pizza social for families arriving from out of town. The next day a special Sabbath service will be geared towards teens. The evening will include a formal dinner and dance for teens aged 12–19. We are hoping parents and family members will be able to attend the senior recognition just before the dinner. Sunday includes a sports event with volleyball, basketball and more social time. We hope that you’ll join us!
The cost for the prom and dinner is $50 per person. Registration is open until Feb. 18. We had a gorgeous and special prom last year. We are looking forward to another amazing year! Registration forms, schedule, and hotel information can be found at midwestteenprom.com.
