The Manchester Ladies Society is looking for donations of clean formal dresses to be used in this year’s free prom dress boutique. Donations can be brought to the front desk of the Manchester District Library. In addition to dresses, the Ladies Society is looking for donations of dress shoes, wraps, small purses, and jewelry. All donations are tax deductible and on request, donors will receive a receipt they can save for tax purposes.

The Manchester Ladies Society will be holding its seventh annual Free Prom Dress Boutique in the Manchester High School Library on Friday, March 20th from 2:45 to 5 pm (and after 5 pm by appointment) and Saturday March 21st by appointment. All appointments must be made by emailing manchesterladiessociety@gmail.com by March 19th. Once again, anyone going to prom who needs a dress will be able to come browse, try-on, and leave with a dress for free. Everyone going to prom is welcome, whether or not they attend Manchester High School.
