Each senior will have a bag labeled with their name. These are arranged alphabetically, and are pre-loaded with a senior gift. Students may check out their bag during the party, and they may keep it or re-check it. Students may also ask to have items such as prizes placed in their bags for storage. Seniors wishing to skate in the ice arena may bring their own skates and helmet (mandatory) in a backpack, which will be stored with their bag when not in use. No other items should be in the backpack; it will be inspected.

Students will pick up their bags before the final entertainer at 10pm, and take them along when they leave.

Security volunteers help secure the event, with one or two volunteers assigned to each door/entrance/area. For those volunteers at ANY entrance, the job is to ensure that NO ONE without a wristband (student) or stamp (parent/guardian) enters the event.

All students/grads/adults must have a wristband or a hand stamp specialized for the event. Any graduate that does not have a wristband will be ushered to the volunteer coordinator in the volunteer check-in area. If someone comes to your area/door and does not have a wristband or a stamp on their hand, they do not enter—PERIOD.

In addition, no graduate will be allowed to leave the event unless they are being picked up by their parent(s), and have permission by the ANGP chairs. This needs to be strictly enforced. This  pickup must be confirmed with the registration chair before the student can leave; check at the volunteer table for the permission slips/approval.

Security personnel at the other areas are to be sure that no students enter or exit through other doors or areas, or move through the boundaries.
